MarineMax appoint Amanda Ward as director of marketing

To be based out of its Clearwater office in Florida, USA, Amanda Ward brings over a decade of experience to the directorial role.

Following a commercially busy period full of sales and acquisitions, Ward joins the brand at an exciting time with Island Global Yachting LLC (IGY Marinas) joining the group in August 2022.

As one of the world's largest yacht retailers, with 120 locations and offices under its belt, MarineMax is well known in the maritime industry for having a portfolio including the brokerage houses of Fraser and Northrop & Johnson.

Recently obtaining the exclusive contract to retail the new range of multihulls for Wider in North America, MarineMax is going from strength to strength and with Ward's help the firm foresees even more growth.
