New Boat Buying Advice Life-long boat dealer Larry Russo gives his views on how
to get a good deal in a soft market
Larry Russo is one of the most universally respected boat
dealers in the U.S. His father started Russo Marine in 1940 and Larry started working
there when he was 8. Over the years he has been president of many industry groups,
including the MRAA (the national boat dealers association), and he is currently
chairman of the industry’s Dealer Certification Program. For the last three years
his dealership has been rated in the “Top 10” in the nation by
Boating Industry magazine. He is not bashful about saying what is on
his mind, as you’ll see.
