Carthage Marine Boat Transport History
Carthage Marine Transport is a family owned and operated boat transportation company located near Carthage, Missouri.
Carthage Marine Transport was founded in 2003 by Brooks R Gubser, the principle owner. The company was started by Brooks so that
his son, Travis could haul and move a few single boats using his pickup truck. Brooks was in the process of retiring from a major global
dairy manufacturer after working in management positions with that company for 40 years and was looking for something meaningful to
occupy his time after retirement.
After starting the business in this small way, Brooks looked at the boat transportation industry and it appeared to him that the industry
was dominated by boat haulers and boat shipping companies and boat transportation brokers that did not operate honestly, legally, or
with integrity. Brooks' work history was with a very reputable company that was successful primarily by focusing on the customer's
requirements and this focus on the customer appeared to be almost non-existent in the boat transportation industry. It appeared there
might be a niche in the industry for a company that would deliver a premium service by being honest in its dealings with everyone,
operated legally and safely, placing emphasis on the needs of the employees, and most of all, recognized the importance of delivering
to the customer a quality service that would meet the requirements of the customer.
Carthage Marine Transport has successfully developed this niche in the boat transportation industry by focusing on the primary areas
we believe are necessary for success; honesty, safety, regulatory compliance, employee relations, and customer service. Our primary
objective is to provide damage free, on time delivery of boats, primarily to the boat manufacturers, which is the primary base of our
company.
This unique blend of beliefs in the boat transportation industry has allowed the company to grow at a rate of 40% per year to its current
level. Additional information on the history is in a Joplin Globe article published April, 2006, Big Boats Cruise Along On Big Trucks.
Carthage Marine Transport remains committed to the basic philosophies that the company was built on.

Carthage Marine Transport Growth/Business Plan
Carthage Marine Transport growth during the first 5 years was at a level of 40% per year. The business plan for the next 5 years
shows continued growth in sales, however at a planned rate reduced to 10%-20% per year. This level of growth will allow the company
to continue to increase its market share in the yacht transportation segment, but at a level more compatible with the operation's
capability for growth and continued improvement.
The reduced rate of growth was accomplished very quickly by the US economy slowdown. The slowdown was especially hard on the
boat manufacture and thus the boat transportation business. Carthage Marine Transport will rebuild as necessary.
The rebuilding and new business plan will be accomplished by cutting back on any high risk type of customers while increasing the
quality type of customers more in line with our company philosophies and long term plans and enhanced vetting in our employee hiring
efforts to insure only premium, top quality owner operators are hired. We will strengthen our presence for private boat transportation
on the Internet and will increase our % of trucks that can transport into Canada. In the future in order to improve our ability to better
service our customers. CMT will eliminate all company drivers and utilize 100 % owner operators.
With these changes CMT will emerge from the economic slowdown a much improved company with a higher potential for quality service
to our customers.
