John Paul Zable, community lead at Ahoy, has been involved in the boating industry his entire life, mainly because of his family business Bassett Boat. Bassett Boat has been in operation since 1944 and has operated as a boat dealership, marina manager, boat service center, rental business, and more. Then in 1998 Bassett Boat spawned Marine Max, which went on to become the largest recreational boat distributor in the Americas, if not the world. John Paul is the right person to take Ahoy to the boating industry thanks to his family’s well-respected reputation and their long-standing business relationships with boat industry leaders.
