Lowe Boats is the name of a company that manufactures aluminum boats.[1] Lowe is the parent company of Sea Nymph Boats, a line of recreational fishing boats which was established in 1946.[2] They make pontoon boats and recreational fishing boats such as the Sea Nymph aluminum fishing boat to the right. Until 1980, Lowe Boats was called Lowe Line.[3] Today, its products are marketed under the Suncruiser, Trinidad, Malibu, Tahiti, Stinger, Roughneck, and Lowe brand names and operates as a subsidy of Brunswick Boat Group.[4]
History[edit]
Lowe boats was founded in 1971 as Lowe Line by Carl and Dianna Lowe. In their first model year, 1972, they produced 29 models of flat bottom and semi-v jon boats and canoes. Lowe made the very first dedicated bass boat in 1975. Lowe Line changed their name to Lowe Boats in 1980.[5]
In 1988, Lowe Boats was purchased by the Outboard Marine Corporation (OMC). They made their first aluminum deck boat in 1992. Lowe Boats acquired Roughneck, Sea Nymph, and Suncruiser in 1999.[5]
The company became part of Genmar Holdings following the sale of the OMC boat companies in 2001.[5]
Lowe Boats was acquired by the Brunswick Corporation in 2004 and is now a part of the Brunswick Boat Group.[5]
