1996-Present - A Leap of Faith

Crowe Marine Survived the 1970's poor economic times and grew the business at their East Point, Georgia location. In 1996 they made a brave decision to pick up and move their successful business to the Lake Oconee area. Bill and his family had spent many weekends enjoying beautiful Lake Oconee. So after much discussion and everybody's commitment to move, Bill moved the business to it's current location in February 1996. When Crowe Marine opened it's doors in 1996, there were not a lot of neighbors on Highway 44. Today you can see the rapid growth the Lake Oconee area has had. Bill, Julie and Brian have never looked back on their decision to move and enjoy their new home. If you drive by today, you will see a family friendly business with the largest selection of boats at Lake Oconee.
