What began as a young boy’s passion for boat engines grew into the first Volvo Power Center in the United States. When Helmut was a child in Germany, his parents started a marina. Helmut quickly discovered that, not only did he love boats, he had an innate fascination with boat engines. He would even skip school to spend more time with the mechanics who worked at the marina. His passion continued to grow, and he eventually became a master technician through Mercedes, and then trained with Volvo Penta Europe in Kiel, Germany, as well as Sweden, before taking over the family business. As a young adult, Helmut emigrated to the Bay Area to open up his own boat shop, which he aptly named Helmut’s Marine. Helmut built up his parts inventory, focusing on one brand—Volvo Penta— expanding the business and adding more people to the Helmut’s Marine team before eventually moving operations. Nadine, Helmut’s daughter, was working in the wine industry when her then boyfriend (now husband) Nate got an offer to join the family business. Nate had been working in the manufacturing engineering industry, and after initially joining the parts department, he applied his technical skills to lead Helmut’s Marine’s engine sales and applications department. Nadine decided to make a career switch, too, joining the team as the service writer. Then she made a surprising discovery—she has passion for boat engines, too. And, just like her father, she started learning everything she could from the experts. Now, she runs day to day operations as Vice President of Operations but her passion is still the service department. Today, Helmut’s Marine continues its one brand focus. We’re here to help you with engines, parts, and service for your boat so you can enjoy your experience on the water. We share your passion for boating, and are here to help you get the most out of your marine experience.
