“After completion of our redevelopments in Palm Beach Gardens and Fort Lauderdale, we will be among the largest slip owners in the state of Florida at approximately 2,600 slips,” states Joe Miller, PORT 32’s managing principal. “We believe it is time to link our portfolio together in a way that creates benefits and efficiencies for our company and our customers.”

“While we are Florida-focused, as we believe the state is the true center of boating in the U.S., we chose “32” because it means something to us. It is the latitude for Charleston, where our company originated and our headquarters is located. Throughout all aspects of our business, we are committed to the “PORT 32” brand, which signifies the highest quality in all marina-related capabilities, facilities and customer service. We further intend to continue to focus on quality of location and market, rather than quantity,” says Miller.

All four existing Florida marinas are renamed as part of the rebranding, resulting in PORT 32 Palm Beach Gardens, PORT 32 Fort Lauderdale, PORT 32 Tierra Verde and Port 32 Tampa. Each of the Florida facilities is overseen by PORT 32 Management.
