OneWater Marine reaches agreement to acquire Denison Yachting

This news of acquisition follows denison yachting's expansion into europe at the tail end of 2021….

OneWater Marine (OneWater) and Denison Yachting have announced that an agreement has been reached for OneWater to acquire Denison Yachting. The deal is expected to be completed in OneWater’s fiscal third quarter.

“We are thrilled to welcome Bob Denison and his team into the OneWater family, which expands and strengthens our presence in the superyacht and yacht categories,” says Austin Singleton, Chief Executive Officer for OneWater. “As we move through the second fiscal quarter, we continue to capitalize on record demand and a growing backlog. Orders at the Miami Boat show were off the charts for both OneWater and Denison, which underscore our combined position as the premier marine retailer of choice from superyachts and yachts to traditional boat sales, parts and service. We look forward to enhancing our leadership position in the market in the coming years.”

OneWater’s acquisition of Denison Yachting is one of a number of high-profile brokerage acquisitions in recent years, of which the most notable was probably the acquisitions of Fraser and Northrop & Johnson by MarineMax. According to of OneWater, the acquisition of Denison Yachting will expand the company’s presence into the new build and superyacht brokerage sectors, as well as the ancillary yacht service offerings that come hand in hand with these foundational services.

“Strong consumer demand continues to fuel our growth and strengthens our position as industry leaders throughout the United States, Europe and the Mediterranean,” explains Bob Denison, President of Denison Yachting. “Denison’s team of experienced yacht brokers is unparalleled in the world of yachting. Their commitment to take incredible care of clients will be accelerated thanks to OneWater’s tools, resources and support. We are excited to be joining the OneWater family and we look forward to what our shared future holds.”

During Monaco Yacht Show 2021 Denison Yachting announced amongst other things that it would be opening its first European office in Monaco. The acquisition of Denison Yachting by OneWater signals the next step in the evolution of a business that has made its desire to expand and grow clear in recent years.

Delta Superyacht Wildflour Sold and Renamed Paladin

By Ben Roberts

Superyacht Wildflour has today been announced as sold by Denison Yacht Sales , and is now set to become Paladin under the wing of her new owners. A true adventure yacht, this world-cruiser is the latest in a string of sales announcements at the height of the year.

The 47.5-metre (156’) Delta superyacht Paladin is world ready, with a legion of luxury toys and advanced facilities on board for the longer voyages. Built in America, Paladin was launched in 2008 and benefitted from a total refit in 2016, bringing her up to date and back onto the market before her sale between Denison Yacht Sales and Fraser.

With space on board for 12 guests in 5 staterooms, Paladin offers ample space for rest, relaxation and family get-togethers thanks to open deck spaces, a style and size that fits any backdrop as well as a highly luxurious decor.

Walnut furnishings, leather panels, textural weaves and open spaces provide the intimate settings for friends and family to spend time on board together, while the owner’s suite is an unparalleled getaway with clean, strikingly designed spaces with double walk-in shower, huge bed and a style draped in shades of sand, ochre, rust and ivory.

With September behind us and activity picking up between two of the world’s biggest superyacht shows, we look forward to bringing you more from the world of brokerage as the news emerges.

Viking Yachts History

Viking yacht company celebrates over five decades: a hull of a story.

Not too long ago, though, the picture at Viking was anything but rosy. When the double-whammy of a nationwide recession hit in 1990, followed by the introduction of a federal luxury tax in 1991, the company went from 1,500 employees in two plants to just 80 employees in one plant. In general, the marine industry went into a tailspin that resulted in massive plant shutdowns and a significant rippling effect of related closures as ancillary businesses, such engine manufacturers, equipment producers and other vendors saw their markets dry up.

The Healeys borrowed working capital and invested their own money to keep the company afloat. Bob Healey also was instrumental in organizing a national, grass-roots campaign to fight the tax based on a loss of jobs issue. In taking the industry lead, Bob organized busloads of out-of-work boat builders that converged on Capitol Hill. Other demonstrations took place on a regular basis around the country to plead for support in repealing the tax. In Rhode Island, a boat was set on fire aboard a barge in Narragansett Bay as a symbol of protest. It took better than two years, but by 1993 the luxury tax was history and Viking was poised to flex its muscles as boat buyers returned to the market. It is interesting to note that Viking's decision to remain open, despite dismal sales attributable to the luxury tax allowed the company to tool up for new models. Thus, when the tax was lifted, Viking roared to the front line leapfrogging over its competition firmly establishing Viking as the dominant builder in its class.

In dealing with an owner base that is constantly seeking new and larger models, Viking produced the Custom 105, built in Viareggio, Italy, to Viking's specifications by Versilcraft. The new yacht made its premiere at the 42nd Annual Ft. Lauderdale International Boat Show in October 2001 and was awarded the National Marine Manufacturers Association Innovation Award at the Miami International Boat Show in February 2002.

In February 2002, Viking opened a new service facility in Riviera Beach, Florida, near Palm Beach, to accommodate Viking owners who bring their boats south for the winter. The new facility features slips for in-water work, as well as land storage to handle larger projects and outfitting. A 125-foot by 150-foot shed with 50 feet of clearance will accommodate boats with tuna towers for indoor work.

In December 2002, the Bass River Marina, adjacent to the Viking Yacht plant was bought back by the Healeys and reflagged the Viking Yachting Center. It was at this marina where the Healey brothers started their maritime careers. The brothers sold the property in 1964 when they devoted all of their energies to boat manufacturing.

In early 2003, Viking formed two new companies, Atlantic Marine Electronics (AME) and Palm Beach Towers (PBT). Atlantic Marine Electronics is based at the Viking Yachting Center (with a satellite office in Riviera Beach) and is responsible for the sophisticated electronic navigation packages, which are installed aboard Viking Yachts and Viking Sport Cruisers. Based at the Riviera Beach, Florida, facility (with additional service bays at the Yachting Center), Palm Beach Towers designs and builds tuna towers and fabricates other aluminum and fiberglass components for Vikings and other yacht brands.

At a very special breakfast presentation on October 29, 2003 during the International Boatbuilders’ Exhibition & Conference in Miami Beach, Florida, Viking Yachts’ Bill and Bob Healey were recognized by their peers and inducted into the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA) Hall of Fame for their selfless contributions to the recreational marine industry.

Designed by Frank Mulder and built in aluminium by Dutch yard Heesen Yachts to ABS class, Sea Axis was delivered in 1987 with a thorough refit in 2011. Accommodation is for 12 guests in five cabins consisting of a master suite, two doubles and two twins plus two Pullman berths and all cabins have full en suite facilities.
