Flounder Pounder Marine

Boat Parts Shipped worldwide

FP Marine is a retail and wholesale supplier of original equipment boat parts. The business was started in a garage in April of 1999. We have grown to be the preferred vendor for boat dealers and technicians worldwide. We strive to provide you with the CORRECT parts the FIRST time, ON time, EVERY time. We understand how valuable your time is and how difficult it is to remain profitable in a service business. One additional trip to the boat because of an incorrect or poor quality part can eat into margins significantly. The only way we win is when we win together.

We are a web based business and sell primarily through this online store. We sell to manufacturers, dealers, technicians, and end-users worldwide. Our sales consist of approximately 75% domestic and 25% international. Most all of the products advertised are stocked in our 11,000 s.f. warehouse in Rockledge, FL. which is located in East Central Florida near Kennedy Space Center. We do not have a retail location or a walk-in store, but you may arrange for you order to be picked up if you are in the area. 

We began by purchasing obsolete inventory from top manufacturers in the marine industry including Pursuit, Maverick, Boston Whaler, Edgewater, Scout, Sea Ray, Baja, Regal, and many others. We also supplemented by refinishing outboard engine cowlings and damaged engines in the early days. As demand through our websites increased for electrical and hardware parts we sourced new product directly from the accessory manufacturers and kept a large inventory to facilitate same day shipping on almost all of our products. Somewhere around 2005 we purchased a laser machine to manufacture instrument panels and this quickly became the core product line of Flounder Pounder Marine. Since then, we have manufactured tens of thousands of acrylic panels for boats, trucks, RV's, ATV's, industrial plants, airport vehicles, awards, promotional items, and so much more. 

Our product line naturally catered to Sea Ray boats as we had a very strong following and well, they make the most boats. We source and manufactured replacement parts that are difficult to find for all brands of boats. Today we have several main categories of parts. Instrument Panels, Electrical, Plumbing, Door and Hatch Track systems, Rubber seals and Trim, Sea Ray EIM replacement systems, Bronze underwater gear, Door Hardware, Plastics, and we still have some Surplus parts like windshields.

In the past few years we have experienced some growing pains in implementing infrastructure changes. We recently just completed a transition from "out of the box" software solutions like Quickbooks and "pre-fab website platforms like Big Commerce and Shopify. The successful transition to a sophisticated ERP system took 5 years of painful lessons in hiring the wrong consultants and trying to integrate inflexible web platforms with an expensive bulky ERP system (Netsuite). I am happy to say that we have finally put together a complete system that will serve us into the future. Our system integrates and automates all accounting, manufacturing, payroll, website and inventory management systems. It is the new backbone of our business that is invisible to the customer but really gives us a complete overview of the business and allows us to communicate real time data to our vendors, customers, and other business associates. There is still a lot of refining to do, but the foundation is poured. Keep an eye on the Library category as it will become a center of valuable information that we want to share after decades in the marine industry.
