That is obviously the goal. Partnering with their biggest dealer, Marine Max, leads to price setting. Buying up marinas controls the water access. Owning the parts distribution outlets also controls price. Owning the electronics and accessories manufacturers assures that there will be limited factory install options. Putting the package together gives them the ability to drive the competition out of business. Once gone, they can raise prices.
