“This acquisition marks an exciting new chapter for D&R Boats,” said Robert Barone Owner of D&R Boats. “East Dover Marina has a long-standing reputation in the Toms River community, and we are committed to investing in the property, enhancing customer services, and building on its legacy. Adding Sea-Doo personal watercraft and expanding our reach with our existing brands strengthens our ability to meet the needs of boaters throughout the region.”
Founded in 1956, and at its 4th generation of the Barone family ownership D&R Boats has served generations of boaters with top-tier brands, expert service, and strong customer relationships.
