Boater’s World Marine Centers, LLC (BWMC) is reporting that Stewart Thompson, the company president, will be stepping down to spend more time with his family. The company said he would continue to be active in the boating industry.

“I appreciate the opportunity that Boater’s World has given me, and I am proud of the organization that we have built over the past six years,” Stewart shared.

Before Boater’s World, Thompson was CEO of Tournament Pleasure Boats Pty, Ltd. for five years in Queensland, Australia, and previously CEO for nine years at Queensland Powerboat Centre Pty, Ltd.
