THE INK MAY STILL BE DRYING on our dealer agreement, but for anyone who may have missed the big news, Bluewater Yacht Sales is now your Jupiter Marine headquarters throughout the state of North Carolina! At Bluewater, we have always prided ourselves in offering some of the finest and most technologically advanced boat brands, and our addition of Florida-based Jupiter Marine is no exception. With over 35 years of boat building experience and roots directly ascending from the brilliant minds and craftsmen behind Bertram Yachts, Jupiter quickly made a name for themselves based on their attention to quality, ruggedness and custom flexibility. Jupiter has long been considered a top- tier center console producer and in recent years have brought their revered hull design into the trending hardtop express market as well. A FINE HERITAGE Jupiter Marine was born from the legacies of Bertram Yachts and Blackfin Yacht Corporation, and has now molded their own legacy of premium offshore center consoles and express boats. Jupiter Marine benefits from the passion and direction of President Carl Herndon, and a team of skilled craftsmen with deep roots in the boat building industry, as they strive each and every day to build some of the most revered and capable fishing and cruising vessels on the market. Jupiter has grown exponentially since their birth in 1989 in a small warehouse in Jupiter, Florida to now occupying a 50,000 square foot operations building across the state on the Gulf Coast. Their current facility includes 3 production lines for their 11 different models ranging from 26 feet to their newest flagship; the impressive 41SB. This new facility includes a massive paint boothwhere Awlgrip or Imron coatings can be sprayed to meet any custom hull color requests. This provides for a near limitless color selection and for example, allows superyacht owners to match their Jupiter tender to the hull color of their mothership.
