Prominent throughout Florida, Jupiter Marine recently made its debut in the Great Lakes region with Coastal Yacht Detailing as its authorized dealer, situated in Port Clinton, Ohio. This partnership marks an expansion for Jupiter Marine into the Midwest, as well as a strategic decision to work with a team focused on quality and service. “Expanding into Ohio with Coastal Yacht is an exciting step for us. As we continue to grow our dealer network, we are focused on working with partners who understand the product and take pride in how they represent the brand. Coastal Yacht fits that approach great, and we are looking forward to building a strong presence in the region and supporting new owners,” says Todd Albrecht, President of Jupiter.

Jupiter Marine builds premium, semi-custom center-console boats known for precision craftsmanship, versatile performance, and refined fit and finish. Spanning an impressive range of 26 to 43 feet, each semi-custom Jupiter model is meticulously crafted to cater to your specific needs and adapt effortlessly to how owners use the water — whether you’re going offshore fishing, cruising, sandbar hopping, or simply enjoying family weekends. Every Jupiter balances comfort, capability, and confidence, and the way this is done is through their expertly-crafted design.

The Posi-Stern™ Hull Pad design, carried through on each Jupiter boat, delivers a smooth, dry ride with excellent visibility, high-speed performance, strong maneuverability, and improved fuel efficiency across varying sea conditions. Yamaha outboards also power the lineup, chosen for reliability and customer satisfaction. Another defining feature of the Jupiter fleet is the range of options to customize your boat. From flooring and helm seat upholstery to audio stereo systems and custom Garmin electronics packages, the attention to detail on a Jupiter yacht is unmatched, no matter which model you choose.

A compact, capable center console that delivers classic ride quality, the Jupiter 26 is in an easy-to-handle yacht tender, ideal for inshore and near-offshore fishing, and quick cruises. One of the brand’s most popular all-around models, the Jupiter 32 balances performance, space, and refinement, with confident handling in changing water conditions. For boaters who are looking for more serious offshore action without sacrificing comfort, you’ll want to stick with models like the Jupiter 34, 38 and 43. Offering increased storage, range, and seating options, these are each strong choices for boaters or anglers who want a family-friendly layout with enhanced stability and power against bigger water.

For those looking to impress, the 380LS, 40, and 41SB are promising. A premium luxury sport model combining high performance with upscale amenities, the 380LS is designed for owners who want speed, comfort, and entertaining space without compromising on seaworthiness. Jupiter 40 is a powerful, confidence-inspiring platform with room to roam, working well for fishing and cruising, or serving as a capable yacht tender. Jupiter 41SB’s design maximizes deck space and ease of movement onboard with an enclosed Sport Bridge, larger cabin, featuring a separate head and shower, and ability to sleep four. This model is ideal for entertaining, diving, and tender duty, with clean lines, open layouts, and refined finishes.

The Jupiter 30 is a true do-everything center console that blends offshore capability, comfort, and versatility in an approximately 30-foot package. It’s designed to be equally at home taking you far offshore, cruising to sandbars, or hosting friends for a sunset cruise. The approximately 29-foot LOA with a 9-foot beam and hull is designed for offshore runs and longer days on the water. Powered to handle up to roughly 700 HP (depending on engine choices), with a generous 262-gallon fuel capacity, gives this boat a good speed and range for extended cruising. Multiple cockpit configurations let you tailor the layout for fishing, cruising, or entertaining, including options like a bait prep center with livewell, mezzanine seating, or transom seating. Thoughtful storage including rod lockers, fish boxes, and ample deck space keeps gear organized and accessible. Boaters who want a single boat that performs well offshore, fishes hard, cruises comfortably, and entertains with style and space will love the 30.

The 340LS represents a more luxury-oriented take on Jupiter’s proven offshore platform, merging sport-fisher functionality with upscale comfort and design cues. Built on the strong Jupiter hull with Posi-Stern design, powered by triple Yamaha outboards, you can drive out into deeper waters efficiently and confidently. Ergonomic seating and high-end finishes including teak accents, integrated audio systems, and wireless charging are available. The bow and cockpit layouts are designed to balance angler needs with comfort, featuring fish boxes, ample storage, and convertible seating that works for fishing or lounging. Below-deck, the console typically includes a head compartment with toilet and sink, plus storage and electronics access.

The new dealership was announced at the Progressive Cleveland Boat Show this past January 2026, where Travis Schwinkendorf from Coastal Yacht Detailing was showcasing the Jupiter 340LS model and discussing the new partnership. “It’s a different ride with the 340LS with how Jupiter boats design the hull system … how it lifts, how it gets on top of the waves rather than crush the waves,” Schwindendorf noted at the show. “A boat like this can maneuver and handle at slower speeds, in great chop, and what it does with the keel system that has it actually get on top of the water is incredible.”

From compact, agile tenders to luxury sport platforms built for big water and long days, every model is engineered to elevate the experience on board. “We already have Jupiters running on the Great Lakes, and they have proven to be a great fit for that style of boating. They handle changing conditions well and are comfortable for long days on the water. We are excited to see more Jupiters out on the lakes as the year goes on,” says Albrecht.
