BRP has agreed to sell its Manitou assets in Lansing, Michigan, to the Marcott family, owners of Bentley Pontoons, following a decision by BRP to sell its marine businesses and focus on core Powersports activities.
“Today marks another key step in our process to sell our Marine businesses. I am proud of the strong foundation we have built for Manitou and I sincerely thank all employees and dealers for their commitment and resilience over the years. I wish them the very best in this next journey,” says José Boisjoli, president and CEO of BRP.
The acquisition is expected to close during BRP’s third quarter of Fiscal year 2026, and BRP and the Marcott family will work in collaboration until then to ensure a smooth and successful transition.
“We are committed to ensuring the continuity of the Manitou brand and we intend to further its reputation for performance, quality and service within the industry, while continuing to support dealers’ needs and success,” adds Dennis Marcott. “We will keep building Manitou boats in the existing Lansing facility, and are looking forward to welcoming talented employees as part of the team.”
