ICONIC Marine Group acquires NauticStar © NauticStar

We are happy to announce that NauticStar has been acquired by ICONIC Marine Group and its owner Fred Ross. We look forward to building for the bold with the support of the ICONIC family, alongside their existing brands Donzi, Fountain, and Baja.

With this exciting news, we will continue to focus on the needs of the NauticStar customer by offering the best-built boats and the best value on the water.

Founded in 2002, we take pride in being a world-class innovator and leader in building high-quality bay, center-console, hybrid, and deck boats. We proudly offer a superior build quality, premium parts and materials, and 100% wood-free designs. Our construction process is designed to give boaters confidence that their ride will not only take them where they need to go and back, but that they're also covered with a warranty promise that gives them peace of mind on the water.

Because of our passion to deliver industry-leading performance and service, and with Fred's passion to succeed, we plan to elevate these offerings to the top of our market.

The NauticStar team and our superior network of dealers are thankful to return to our roots as an entrepreneurial, family-owned company. We want our valued customers to rest assured in the coverage our warranty offers and our experienced dealer representatives for the best service in boating.
