全球最大的休閒遊艇和遊艇零售商 MarineMax, Inc.（紐約證交所代碼：HZO）今天宣佈成立新浪潮創新，這是一項將投資和發展與科技相關產品和服務的新業務。Boatyard 以前被收購並最近被公認為頂級創新型公司，Boatzon 將屬於這個新實體。
MarineMax today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire the remaining seventy-five percent interest in Boatzon, that it does not already own. The closing is expected in the Company's fiscal second quarter ending March 31, 2023. Boatzon is the first 100 percent online boat and marine retailer providing secure direct marketplace services. Since making its initial investment in Boatzon in December 2021, MarineMax has been partnering with the Boatzon team to grow product capabilities and expand service offerings, serving both customers and marine dealers. As the partnership and Boatzon business have grown, the two companies are now teaming up to accelerate growth opportunities. Boatzon will operate as an independent company managed by co-founders Bryan Lenett, Michael Muchnick, and their team.
MarineMax 今天宣布，已達成一項最終協議，收購博阿宗剩餘百分之七十五的權益，它尚未擁有。該公司預計截至 2023 年 3 月 31 日的財政年度第二季度結束。Boatzon 是第一家 100％ 提供安全直接市場服務的在線船舶和海洋零售商。自 2021 年 12 月對博阿宗進行首次投資以來，MarineMax 一直與 Boatzon 團隊合作，共同提高產品能力並擴大服務產品，為客戶和船舶經銷商提供服務。隨著合作夥伴關係和 Boatzon 業務的增長，兩家公司現在正在合作以加速增長機會。博阿宗將作為一個獨立的公司由聯合創始人布萊恩·列內特，邁克爾·穆奇尼克和他們的團隊管理。
Shawn Berg, EVP, Chief Digital Officer of MarineMax and New Wave Innovations President stated, "Aligning our passion for boating with entrepreneurship and technology growth opportunities will advance our Company's strategic growth. We look forward to Bryan, Michael, and the entire Boatzon team joining the MarineMax family. The formation of New Wave Innovations is an incredible opportunity for MarineMax to partner with entrepreneurial technology companies seeking the resources and expertise to accelerate the growth of their businesses."
MarineMax 首席數位官兼新浪潮創新總裁執行副總裁 Shawn Berg 表示：「將我們對划船的熱情與創業精神和技術成長機會保持一致，將促進公司的策略性成長。我們期待布萊恩，邁克爾和整個博阿宗團隊加入 MarineMax 家族。對於 MarineMax 而言，新浪潮創新的成立是一個難以置信的機會，與尋求資源和專業知識的創業科技公司合作，以加速其業務的增長。」

We are excited about our ability to selectively invest in and grow businesses such as Boatyard and Boatzon. New Wave Innovations provides us with an exclusive technology growth engine to build on that success."
MarineMax 首席執行官兼總裁 Brett McGill 表示：「創新和科技一直走在我們策略的最前沿，致力於打造一家在海洋產品、服務和體驗方面處於領先地位的綜合性公司。我們對自己有選擇性地投資和發展船廠和 Boatzon 等業務的能力感到興奮。新浪潮創新為我們提供了一個獨家的技術成長引擎，以建立在這一成功的基礎上。」
