Longboat Key marina signs deal

LONGBOAT KEY — Cannons Marina in Longboat Key is now the exclusive dealer of boats built by Jupiter Marine International for Florida's West Coast, a marina release says.

Palmetto-based Jupiter Marine had been talking with Cannons about an exclusive representation deal for three years, according to David and Lucy Miller, Cannons' co-owners.

“We like having close and personal relationships with our manufacturers,” David Miller says, “so we are happy to align ourselves with a reputable local company like Jupiter.”
