Mark was born and raised in Redcliffe as the fourth of five sons in a passionate boating family, I have loved fishing and boating for as long as I can remember. Some of my fondest childhood memories are of weekends spent on Moreton Island, especially around the Tangalooma wrecks, which sparked my lifelong passion for boating and being on the water.
After owning several boats in my teenage years and early 20s, I pursued a career in the marine industry, starting in Marine Parts and Accessories in 2007. I worked my way up to Parts and Accessories Manager at Northside Marine before being honored to join the Boat Sales Team. My nearly 20 years in the industry allow me to provide knowledgeable and friendly advice to customers of all experience levels.
I take great pride in helping customers find the perfect boat to suit their needs. My goal is to guide them through the buying process, ensuring they get the most enjoyment out of their time on the water. By understanding each customer’s lifestyle and preferences, I help them make confident and informed decisions.
