In February 2015, the Lynch Motor Company announced a strategic partnership and distribution agreement with Covey Island Boatworks.
Covey Island Boatworks are highly regarded throughout North America and abroad for their quality, custom built yachts and professional restoration work on historic and classic yachts.
Covey Island Boatworks act as a distributor for the Lynch Motor in Canada and North East America- further expanding the LMC Motor's presence through dealers including marinas, boat yards and builders.
What was the customer response?
'It is clear that in recent years, consumers have taken particular interest in electric propulsion and hybrids, thus the tremendous growth and popularity.
In recent years, consumers have taken the opportunity to embrace the concept of sustainability, showing great concern for the environment with live in. It is clear that being respectful of the marine environment is equally rewarding and more practical today.
We feel there are specific opportunities for new boats to include electric or hybrid (diesel/electric) propulsion systems based on the boating habits of the owners and we want to play a part in this segment. There is also a considerable opportunity to re-power older boats with electric or hybrid systems".
