Mark graduated from college in 1995 with a 3 year diploma in Marine Management and immediately joined the family business full time. Today, Mark is the owner, overseeing all operations of the marina and handles the majority of new boat sales. You can always reach Mark 24/7 which our customers really appreciate.

Bev has been with Payne Marine for six years now and she is the lady who is responsible for how clean and great your boat looks. Bev works so hard in the wet snow in late April and November, the hot sun of July and in the rains of the spring and she never complains or skips a beat. Next time you are admiring how spotless your boat is, you can thank Bev for all of her efforts.

Mark has joined our staff in September 2009 and has already become a great part of our team. Mark's extensive background in construction, plumbing and electrical are of great value to the upkeep of our business. Mark has re-shingled our retail outlet store this past fall amongst many other jobs. Easy to get along with, and a true team player, we hope Mark will be with us for years to come. Welcome back Mark!
