Spencer will be responsible for lead management, performance analysis and process optimisation.
“When the opportunity came to combine my passion for boating with the chance to help grow a dynamic company and contribute to its sales success, I jumped at it,” he said.
“They have developed a fantastic reputation in the industry as offering cutting-edge technology that truly makes boating more accessible, easier and safer. I look forward to working closely with the team and our customers.”

Marine electronics
Before joining Dockmate, he spent more than 35 years in marine electronics and satellite communications, both as a US Navy electronics technician and in the private sector as a former business owner installing and commissioning marine electronics.
His experience ranges from military shipboard surveillance systems, commercial mission-critical communications to various maritime VSAT systems.
“After three years in technology sales, I knew I wanted to take my foundation in sales and apply it to an industry I’ve always been passionate about,” he said.
“Growing up, I was constantly drawn to the water, whether it was spending time on friends’ boats, my own boat, or just hanging around the local marina.
“When the opportunity came to combine my passion for boating with the chance to help grow a company like Dockmate, it felt like the perfect fit.”
“At Dockmate, we’re tackling one of boating’s biggest pain points, the stress and risk of docking in tight quarters,” said Marc Curreri, CEO, Dockmate US.
“I am confident that Spencer and Josh’s passion, commitment and experience will be integral in growing our sales efforts.”
