We are proud to announce that Terry Johnson’s Hamer Bay Marine Ltd. is now Mike Johnson’s Hamer Bay Marine Ltd.
This is the second generation of Johnson’s owning and operating Hamer Bay Marine!
Since 1980, Terry Johnson owned and operated Hamer Bay Marine making high end service a top priority and he stood by his mission statement “No Aggravation Boating”. He was also committed to participating in the Clean Marine Program, promoting environmentally responsible best management practices for marinas.
Mike returned to Hamer Bay Marine in 2010 to manage the marina as Terry transitioned into his retirement. Although the ownership has changed, we still have the same management team and we look forward to continuing to grow and providing you with great service.
For over 40 years, Hamer Bay Marine was the top line dealer for BRP Evinrude outboard motors with Platinum status servicing the Muskoka and Parry Sound regions. In 2020, BRP announced that they would no longer be producing outboard motors and this came as a shock as well as a huge disappointment to Hamer Bay Marine.
Mike researched other outboard motor manufacturers to find the best performing outboard motor as well as a company that had business practices and goals that aligned with Hamer Bay Marine. After a great amount of research, Hamer Bay Marine made the decision to become a Suzuki dealer and has not looked back.
Why Suzuki? Suzuki outboards are engineered to offer a great boating experience with less vibration and noise. They are light, compact, easy to use, with smooth and decisive shifting, feisty acceleration at all operating ranges and powerful torque. Suzuki outboards offer fuel efficiency and low emissions for low maintenance costs and less environmental impact. They have features designed to prevent failure, alert you before you encounter a problem, and to be easy to service when the need arises. Suzuki also supports their Clean Ocean Project Initiative.
Although we are now a Suzuki dealer and our goal is to be the top line dealer in Muskoka, we continue to service Evinrude motors providing the same great service. We will also be continuing with our Evinrude online parts store to ensure our customers can continue to enjoy their boating experience.
Mike teamed up with Bayview Boats in 2018 to represent their products. Bayview Boats is a Canadian and local manufacturing company located in Muskoka. They are a custom aluminum fabrication company specializing in aluminum boats. We are excited to represent these high-quality boats.
Since 2018 we have been a dealer for Excalibur marine trailers. These boat trailers are manufactured in Canada and are built to the highest standards giving top-notch quality and the best world class trailer manufacturer in the powersport industry.
We look forward to continuing to provide you with an exceptional “No Aggravation Boating” experience.
