Marine Power Network- The Marine Professionals Network

October 23, 2026

Marine Power Network picture

Although many of us operate in different states, our customers and clients often adventure beyond home. They live, travel, cruise, and keep second or third homes across state lines. They rely on trusted marine and waterfront professionals wherever they go and often ask the pros from home base if they have contacts where they are going. Networking beyond our local markets strengthens referrals and improves customer service. It also ensures our clients are taken care of no matter where the water leads them. In this industry, strong relationships shouldn’t stop at the county or state borders.

The true value of networking and building trusted connections lies within always knowing you have got your customers and your business covered. If you are in the marine or waterfront industries and haven’t joined the Marine Power Network yet, our reach is growing, check us out! I am always looking to grow my referral network with other brokers, dealers, and service providers outside of my areas, please feel free to reach out and introduce yourself or make the introduction if you know them.

We have been meeting at the beautiful St. Petersburg Yacht Club in downtown on the 3rd Wednesday of the month from 4:30-5:30+ upstairs at the Tiki Bar. If you are interested in attending or would like to be included on our email list please reach out! (Sometimes we have to switch locations.)

Marine Professionals Networking with a Purpose

On deck this month in the Florida Gulf Coast:

We’re a group of dedicated marine and waterfront professionals who show up with purpose – to build meaningful connections, grow our businesses, and ensure we always have trusted partners we can rely on to take care of our clients. Additionally, sometimes we have guests that are outside our marine sector that show up to network and support us. We appreciate them too and all we ask is they bring another marine professional with them as their ticket of entry.

No matter what state or region you operate out of, we want to connect with you too! If you work in or around the marine or a waterfront industry, we want you to come join us next month! Check out our growing group on Facebook – Marine Power Network. Additionally, find out more by watching the video below! #marinepowernetwork Please feel free to share these posts and our flyers! Let me know if I can send you anything direct, I’m here to help.

I am very excited to share with you, after months of building, testing, refining, and working through the details to get it right, I’m excited to finally introduce Captain’s View 360, brought to you by Odysseys Marine & Yachts!

The way we market boats, yachts, and ships is evolving, and I wanted to create something that takes the experience to an entirely different level. Not just another listing with a few photos and a video, but an immersive, all-in-one digital experience that gives buyers the ability to explore a vessel like never before. Able to be personalized to any potential buyer, sent personalized from the broker/salesman.

With Captain’s View 360, buyers can virtually step aboard, look around, explore the details, and get a much better feel for a vessel before ever setting foot on it in person. From 360° virtual tours and cinematic video to detailed visuals that put the buyer in control, it’s all accessible right at their fingertips. Anytime. Anywhere.

For sellers, it’s about standing out. In a competitive market, your vessel deserves more than just another listing. It deserves to be presented in a way that captures attention, creates interest, and gives potential buyers a reason to take a closer look. We’re bringing a new level of presentation and marketing to the table, helping sellers put their vessels in front of buyers in a whole new way.

This has taken months of work to bring together, and I’m proud of where it’s headed. The goal has always been simple: give sellers a better way to showcase their vessels and give buyers the tools to explore every detail, all in one place.

This is what the next generation of marine marketing looks like, and we’re just getting started!
