We know that moving forward they will only add to the growth and elevation of our Aquasport brand as we continue to expand our model offerings, production capacity, and dealer opportunities in new markets.”

“We’re proud to be presenting Aquasport models, as well as the Limestone Boat Company as a whole,” said Dealer Principal Ken DeWildt. “We take great pride in offering the utmost in sales and service to our loyal customer base, and we recognize the potential market here in Canada for Aquasport. The highly recognized brand and associated model offerings allow us to expand our opportunities as well as offer a solid product to a previously untapped market. We see nothing but success with this partnership.”

Limestone recently launched the Aquasport Boats brand in the Canadian market for the first time at the Toronto International Virtual Boat Show, where the brand’s offerings drew significant consumer and dealer interest.
