Monument buys<br />
Florida marine centre<br />
USA: Monument Marine Group, an investment firm focused on opportunities<br />
in the marine industry across the USA and Caribbean, has purchased St<br />
Augustine Marine Center, a renowned marine service centre located in the<br />
heart of St Augustine, Florida.<br />
This strategic acquisition in northeast<br />
Florida strengthens Monument’s<br />
expansion goals in the south-eastern<br />
USA while enhancing its capabilities<br />
to deliver exceptional services to<br />
customers across the marine industry,<br />
particularly those travelling along the<br />
eastern seaboard.<br />
St Augustine Marine Center is ideally<br />
situated near the St Augustine inlet,<br />
allowing easy and navigable deepwater<br />
access to the Atlantic Ocean, just four<br />
miles (6.4km) away via the Intracoastal<br />
Waterway. The facility, established<br />
in 1992, serves as a central hub for<br />
marine services in the area, with a<br />
long standing reputation for excellence<br />
in customer service and quality<br />
craftsmanship.<br />
The property covers 30 acres (12ha)<br />
and includes 1,100 linear feet (335m) of<br />

dockage with expansion potential, dry<br />
land storage, commercial rental space,<br />
a multi-building service centre and a<br />
paint building equipped to cater for<br />
yachts up to 110ft (33.5m) long.<br />
Oasis Marinas will be responsible<br />
for all on-site operations, ensuring<br />
uninterrupted delivery of service. “We<br />
are tremendously excited to welcome<br />
St Augustine Marine Center into<br />
our expansive network of premier<br />
service locations,” said Kenneth<br />
Svendsen, CEO of Oasis Marinas.<br />
“The Oasis Marinas service team<br />
has the expertise, relationships and<br />
capabilities to build on the already<br />
stellar reputation the St Augustine<br />
Marine Center team holds today. This<br />
property extends our core commitment<br />
of unmatched service to the St<br />
Augustine boating community.”<br />
