Our History
Founded in 2023, Storm Marine Group was formed to meet the demand for high-quality institutional products that fulfill the requirements of Yacht Clubs, Sailing Centers, Universities and individuals. Our experienced team of professionals are dedicated to ensuring that our products are safe, stable, durable and low maintenance. Most importantly, we aim to deliver an exceptional sailing experience.
Storm 18
Our new "Storm 18" is a lifting keel sloop that comfortably accommodates 2 or more adults in a safe and secure cockpit. The 18' has easy and controllable sailing characteristics yet it provides a stable platform that is versatile enough to be used for learn to sail participants, junior sailors, family racing, interclub racing, (fleet racing, team racing, and match racing). We have developed this highly durable, stylish and modern boat to be easily maintained by institutional staff. There is a small range of upgrades available should anyone wish to personalize their fleet. We are also working on developing a set of options that will allow the platform to be used in adaptive sailing.
Our Mission
At Storm Marine Group, our mission is to provide our customers with the best possible institutional boating experience. We strive to exceed our customers' expectations by providing exceptional quality products, a safe and enjoyable boating environment and outstanding service.
