IGY Marinas

What IGY Marinas does

IGY Marinas (legal entity Island Global Yachting LLC) is a privately held, Fort Lauderdale-headquartered operator of a global network of 24 luxury marina destinations spanning 14 countries across the United States, Caribbean, Latin America, Europe, and the Middle East. The company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of MarineMax, Inc. (NYSE: HZO), the world's largest boat retailer. IGY serves superyacht owners, charter companies, captains, crew, and corporate event clients, offering premium berth and slip rentals, dedicated shipyard services in Sète (France) and St. Maarten, event venues under the Harbor360 brand (including capacity for up to 250 guests at Yacht Haven Grande St. Thomas), and the IGY Trident Club membership program that provides priority booking, wellness benefits, and lifestyle access across the network.

Its core technology stack is a digital marina management platform integrated with Dockwa for real-time berth reservations and a Harbor360 event-management system, supported by direct website booking and a global distribution partnership with BWA Yachting. The GTM combines enterprise field sales for superyacht owners and corporate event clients, direct-to-consumer digital booking through Dockwa and the IGY site, and channel-driven acquisition through yacht agencies and shipyards. Pricing is fully quote-based and not publicly disclosed.

The company monetizes through five principal streams: recurring berth and slip rentals (annual and transient), professional shipyard services for maintenance and refit, one-time event venue rentals, subscription-style Trident Club membership, and usage-based concierge, provisioning, and crew services. Ancillary lifestyle programs (IGY Golf, IGY Sportfish, IGY Crew Events) deepen wallet share. IGY has earned 5-Gold Anchor accreditation from The Yacht Harbour Association at six marina locations, with Yacht Haven Grande having been named Superyacht of the Year four times, and serves more than 10,000 vessel customers annually.
