Larry Phillips , Founder of Darwin based In and Outboard Marine, began his marine business in 1984. The fledgling marine workshop business in the mid 80's was a far cry from the modern and expansive dealership that Larry and partner Stewart Zanker operate today.

With a service grounding in the marine business, the success behind In and Outboard Marine is firmly rooted in offering customers true service, carrying an exceptional range of stock and selling only quality boating products.

Along the journey from 1984 , Larry Phillips believes that many factors have combined to contribute to the success of In and Outboard Marine.

"We have the largest stock holding in the Top End," Larry stated. "And that's in boats, accessories, outboard engines, trailers. you name it we've got it in store."

"Our core values of customer service are practiced just as much today as they were when I was starting out. These values are instilled into staff from the very first day that each person joins us."

"And I am a boater myself having successfully campaigned countless ski race boats. These days my boating is much slower paced, but I still hold the passion for getting out on the water."
