Manitowoc Marina Joins the Jeanneau Family

Jeanneau is proud to welcome Manitowoc Marina as our exclusive Jeanneau Sailboat Dealer for eastern Wisconsin, Illinois, and Indiana, continuing a legacy of expert service and passion for sailing in the region.

This transition follows the planned retirement of the Larsen family, who represented Jeanneau for nearly 30 years, delivering hundreds of sail and powerboats to Great Lakes boaters. “We are so grateful for the wonderful relationship we’ve had with Jeanneau America these past 29 years,” said Gregory and Brian Larsen. “Our customers have been more than clients—they’ve been lifelong friends.” Manitowoc Marina now carries forward the same dedication, expertise, and community spirit that has long defined Jeanneau in the region.

Already a trusted name among Midwest boaters, Manitowoc Marina has represented Jeanneau Powerboats since 2023 and now expands to include the full Jeanneau Sailboat line - from the agile Sun Odyssey range to the Jeanneau Yachts series.

Founded in 2011 by Rich Larsen, Manitowoc Marina operates six locations across four states, including full-service marinas in Manitowoc and Marinette, Wisconsin, and sales offices in Chicago and Door County. “Jeanneau brings innovation, quality, and value to the sailboat market, and we’re thrilled to represent the brand across both power and sail. This partnership is a perfect fit,” said Rich Larsen, President of Manitowoc Marina.

With Manitowoc Marina at the helm, sailors in eastern Wisconsin, Illinois, and Indiana can look forward to continued excellence on and off the water, and a new era of unforgettable sailing adventures.
