In celebration of Sea Ray’s 65th anniversary, Walstrom Marine was honored with the Legacy Award and the Unrivaled support award during the 2024 dealer meeting.
The Legacy Award recognizes dealerships that have made an admirable impact on their communities and the boating industry for 65 years or more.
The Unrivaled Support Award recognizes dealerships with exceptional customer satisfaction earning a Net Promoter Score (NPS) of 65 or above. NPS scores are solely based on customer feedback and their willingness to recommend the company. The award from Sea Ray highlights the dealerships that provide a premium experience to customers at every stage of their boating journey.
“It is a privilege to work with the best dealer network in the marine industry,” said Keith Yunger, President, Sea Ray Boats. “Since 1959, much of our success has been due to dealers with unwavering support and superior service. We are thrilled to honor them for their achievements throughout our partnership.”

During the event attendees enjoyed training, business updates, award recognitions, and on-water product demonstrations of Sea Ray’s latest model line-up including the award-winning SLX 260 Outboard and all-new SDX 270 Surf.
