History

Disco Marine was established in February, 1987 by husband and wife, Neil and Judy Disson. Neil, or “Disco” as he is universally known, managed a marine dealership in Lismore for 10 years before moving to South Grafton and Disco Marine was born.

Disco Marine traded at those South Grafton premises until January 2006 when it moved into more modern facilities at its current Grafton location. Jason & Tania acquired the dealership in 2009 and have ensured existing relationships have been maintained.

Mercury Marine has been a partner since the start supplying Mercury Outboards, number one in the world of marine propulsion. The relationship with Telwater/Stacer dates back to 1990 with Stacer being a dominant force in the aluminium boat market since 1972.
