About Caravelle Marine, Inc.
Don’t sweat the small stuff? Sorry, but that old advice doesn’t work for Caravelle Powerboats. This quality boat manufacturer is building quite a reputation for doing just that.While other manufacturers put most of their energy on boats 30 foot and above, Caravelle has an uncommon focus when it comes to their 17- 28 foot models Each model they design receives the maximum attention of the management and production teams ensuring high-quality construction and standout features. This concentration has guided Caravelle into quite a successful company. Although, the company has been around for 37 years, 2003 is proving to be a true breakout year. Caravelle got its start in Arkansas and soon debuted innovations like the first walk-thru windshield and hide-away convertible top. In 1987 the company moved to a 150,000 square foot facility in Americus, Georgia where they built a solid business building bowriders, sporty fish & ski models, and Interceptor performance boats. In 1995, a new management team was assembled with a long-term plan to boost its image and enhance its boats. In 1998 that management team purchased the company and their plan is paying off big time with the 2003 introduction of the wood-free Luxury Series (LS) sport boats and the wood-free Sea Hawk offshore fishing boats. “Our mission since 1995 has been to elevate the product through impressive styling, functional features and the highest quality materials available, says Craig Cummins, Caravelle’s vice president of sales. We’ve gone around a lot of companies who didn’t see us coming.” |
