Harbor Marine

What Harbor Marine does

Harbor Marine is a privately held marine service and retail business founded in 1979 and headquartered at 1032 W Marine View Dr, Everett, Washington. The company operates from a single facility that combines a retail storefront stocking marine and outdoor products from over 100 brands with a covered service building capable of housing multiple full-size boats for repair. It employs between 11 and 50 people and serves primarily the Pacific Northwest recreational boating community, including powerboat and sailboat owners and liveaboards.

The company's revenue is generated through three integrated streams: (1) retail sale of marine parts, electronics, engines, generators, and general supplies; (2) full boat service and repair including fiberglass work, engine repowers, tune-ups, winterization, electronics installation, bottom painting, and haulout; and (3) specialized marine transmission sales, repair, and remanufacturing covering legacy drivetrains such as Velvet Drive, Borg Warner, and ZF Marine. Core technical capability centers on qualified mechanics who rebuild and service engines and generators from manufacturers including Cummins, Ford Lehman, Yanmar, Crusader, MerCruiser, Northern Lights, Lugger, and Onan. Pricing is quote-based and varies by vessel size and condition.

The business also operates Fisherman's Market & Grill, a grocery store and cafe located inside the main Harbor Marine building (formerly Stow-Away Grocery); the restaurant portion of this sub-brand has closed, with only the grocery and espresso bar remaining. Harbor Marine ships parts worldwide, maintains a Mailchimp-powered weekly email newsletter, and is active on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. The company has no disclosed parent, institutional investors, funding rounds, or M&A activity, and appears to be founder- or family-owned.
