A strong team culture and bond is one of Nautical Ventures ' crucial components to its continuous success .
Taking a chance on the different
A quick conversation with Nautical Ventures Group CEO Roger Moore ( a . k . a . 007 ) will tell you that he ’ s not afraid to take risks . Moore embraces the chance to fail and passes that mindset onto his entire team . And with that mindset , customers have the opportunity to discover some of the newest technologies , boats and water toys to the market when walking through the Nautical Ventures doors .
“ Rather than poke holes in an idea and talk about how it won ’ t work , we take an idea and figure out ways that it will work ,” Moore told Boating Industry back in 2016 , a sentiment he and the team still very much carry today .
Moore , a lifelong boater , a circumnavigator having tacked more than 42,000 nautical miles over a span of 13-years around the world , has lived only on a boat since 1986 and currently lives on an 84-foot expedition yacht . Each decision he makes for Nautical Ventures comes from the heart and soul of a boater . The outcome of those decisions is for the betterment of the organization and for its customers , so as to have the best experience both in any of Nautical Ventures ’ stores and on the water .
“ Florida is homeport to more big yachts than any other place in the world ,” Chief Marketing Officer Frank Ferraro said . “ As a result , Nautical Ventures proactively seeks out innovative boat brands and emerging marine technologies and is the first to introduce them to the Florida market .”
On top of carrying some of the newest products to the marine industry , Nautical Ventures Group takes another chance in the form of different marketing and events tactics in the various boating communities the business serves .
With customers and OEMs around the world , the Nautical Ventures team knows no bounds .
