It is with great excitement I share with you the news that Moon River Marine has been acquired by Maple Leaf Marinas.

What does this mean for you?

On a day-to-day basis you’re not going to see a great deal change. Our amazing staff is joining the Maple Leaf Marina’s team and will continue to provide you with the same incredible service (and smiling faces) you’ve come to expect. Joining them in the role of General Manager is Wyatt Gray (please see Wyatt’s welcome message below).

What does this mean for us?

My wife Casey and I will be staying on for the first few months to provide a smooth transition and solid start to the summer season. After that I will be turning my full attention to my new venture, J-Craft Boats. With an eye to the essential elements of the classic the new J combines state of art technology and innovative design to create a modern icon—one we are proud to be manufacturing right here at home. My family and I will also continue to make our home on the bay, so this is not goodbye—we’ll be seeing you on the water soon!

Casey and I want to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you for putting your trust in us over the last 18 years. We also want to acknowledge and thank our dedicated staff for their commitment, caring and hard work in bringing us to where we are today. We know under the direction of Wyatt and the entire Maple Leaf Marina’s team they will continue to create an unparalleled customer service experience. We wish everyone involved the greatest success in the future.

With sincere gratitude,

Chris Holmes
