US-based Electronics Unlimited (EU) and Navtronics have joined forces to launch Great Circle Group, headed by Damon Tassone and Michael Wexler.
The company aims to establish a premier marine technology national sales and service brand and says the formation of Great Circle Group addresses a demand for sophisticated, reliable marine technology services.
“We’re building the company we’ve always wanted to see in this space,” said Tim Greer, president of Navtronics and VP of Great Circle Group.
“With Great Circle we can now expand our premium marine technology services well beyond our New England roots, and become the employer of choice for marine technicians, offering unprecedented career opportunities and advancement paths.”
Great Circle represents a significant evolution in marine technology services.

Electronics Unlimited and Navtronics will continue to maintain their individual brand identities while operating under the Great Circle Group umbrella.
The company also has plans to expand, intending to grow both organically and by inviting additional high-quality sales and service providers to join the Great Circle family.
“Great Circle represents a significant evolution in marine technology services,” said Ron Muller, president of Electronics Unlimited and VP of Great Circle Group.
“By bringing together our deep industry knowledge with forward-thinking technology leadership, we’re creating a platform that will attract the best service providers throughout the country while elevating the entire customer experience.”
Lifelong boaters
Michael Wexler, co-CEO of Great Circle Group, added: “As lifelong boaters ourselves, we’ve seen technology increasingly become core to the boating experience and understand the critical importance of reliable, expert service.
“We also see tremendous opportunity to develop innovative service offerings that leverage vessel data, emerging technologies, and enhanced connectivity.”
Damon Tassone, co-CEO of Great Circle Group, added that the organisation is committed to transforming the marine industry.
“Our emerging national footprint allows us to reimagine what’s possible in marine technology sales and services, setting new standards of excellence that benefit the entire ecosystem,” he said.
