COVER STORY<br />
Port 32 Naples is drystack-focused with<br />
a club atmosphere that extends to a<br />
restaurant and event space.<br />
but there is something about the<br />
ocean that soothes the soul.<br />
Q: What is your five/ten year goal<br />
for Port 32?<br />
A: It sounds a bit ambitious when<br />
you put it in writing. First and<br />
foremost, every day we are trying to<br />
build a company that our members,<br />
investors and employees can be<br />
proud of. As far as goals, I believe<br />
we are well ahead of schedule in<br />
our quest to assemble the best<br />
leadership team in the industry.<br />
We also have a strong foundation<br />
of irreplaceable, high quality marina<br />
assets. Building on this foundation,<br />
it is our goal to aggregate the<br />
premier portfolio of coastal marina<br />
assets on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts.<br />
We don’t need to be the biggest,<br />
and frankly we want to avoid diluting<br />
our brand, customer experience or<br />
employee experience in pursuit of<br />
scale, which is what you’ve seen with<br />
other large marina consolidators.<br />
Big picture, we want to deliver a<br />
distinctive experience to our members,<br />
who are the lifeblood of our company.<br />
We want to deliver industry-leading<br />
risk-adjusted returns to our investors.<br />
We want to be a great place for our<br />
employees to work and to feel a<br />
sense of purpose and connection.<br />
And we want to be a straightforward,<br />
transparent and trustworthy partner to,<br />
or acquiror of, individual marinas and<br />
owners/operators who are looking to<br />
participate in the world and lifestyle we<br />
are building at Port 32.<br />
