Vision Marine Technologies' Nautical Ventures Expands Florida Gulf Coast Product Portfolio with Tahoe Pontoons

Under the agreement, effective August 11, 2026, Nautical Ventures will represent Tahoe across Pasco, Pinellas, Hillsborough, Polk and Hernando counties, adding Tahoe's outboard pontoon lineup to Vision Marine's retail platform along Florida's Gulf Coast. Nautical Ventures will market, sell and service the products through its established operations, broadening customer choice and strengthening the Company's presence in an important recreational boating category.

Nautical Ventures expects to introduce the 2027 Tahoe model lineup through its Tampa Bay operation in Holiday, Florida, supported by a planned showcase at the 2026 Tampa Bay Boat Show in September. The coordinated launch is intended to build regional awareness and connect customers directly with Nautical Ventures' expanded pontoon offering.

"Our strategy at Nautical Ventures is to offer boaters an exceptional mix of products aligned with how they want to spend time on the water," said Alexandre Mongeon, Chief Executive Officer of Vision Marine. "Tahoe strengthens our pontoon category with recognized products designed for family cruising, fishing, watersports and performance. Combined with Nautical Ventures' sales, delivery and service capabilities, this addition broadens customer choice and supports a more complete ownership experience."

For Vision Marine, the agreement advances the role of Nautical Ventures as the Company's commercial platform in recreational boating. Adding an established pontoon brand in targeted Florida markets broadens the Company's product portfolio, strengthens its regional coverage and creates additional opportunities to serve customers throughout the purchase, delivery, maintenance and warranty lifecycle.
