Our connection to this trade runs through the family. Today, that experience goes into the seawalls, docks, and waterfront projects we build.

Read our family story

Rooted in Punta Gorda

The story begins
close to home.

Gary Stover was a cattle rancher who turned to marine construction and founded G. Stover Marine. Known as the original Saltwater Cowboy, his work helped shape the Punta Gorda Isles canal system.

Florida Marine Specialists carries that family trade into its third generation. The connection to Punta Gorda remains part of who we are.
