Sustainable growth Catalina Express is actively pursuing low-emissions modernization with a new high-capacity ferry and emissions-reduction technology demonstrations funded by a CARB grant, signaling a readiness to collaborate on green propulsion projects and sustainable maritime initiatives.

Expansion partnerships Recent collaborations with Marine Group Boat Works and Rolls-Royce for vessel construction and propulsion indicate a strong channel for third-party vendors, parts, and maintenance services, offering sales opportunities in design, equipment, and support packages.

Public funding leverage A combined grant strategy totaling at least $30 million partnered with Catalina Express demonstrates aptitude for leveraging public funding, presenting a compelling case for financially-backed, large-scale fleet modernization or pilot programs.

Fleet modernization With a fleet of eight high-speed vessels including catamarans and ongoing modernization efforts, there is potential to upsell maintenance contracts, retrofit services, and technology upgrades to maximize reliability and performance.

Market leadership Being a long-standing leader in Catalina Island transport with over 17 million passengers served highlights opportunities to expand cross-sell into travel packages, partnerships with hotels, and bundled experiences targeting tourism and excursion markets.
