Harris joined Brunswick in 2002 and most recently served as the regional manager for Mercury Marine in New Zealand for the last 16 years. Harris has more than two decades of marine sales experience and previously served as a national sales manager for MAC boats prior to joining Brunswick.

“I am thrilled for the opportunity to join the Brunswick Boat Group division and lead the team at Rayglass,” says Harris, president of Rayglass. “I am confident my experience working directly with customers for so long gives me a unique perspective into the wants and needs of boaters. I am excited to lean into that as we continue the legacy of excellence in design and performance Rayglass is known for.”

“Dean’s promotion to president of Rayglass speaks to the level of talent we are fortunate to foster and the growth opportunities across the Brunswick enterprise,” says Lenn Scholz, president of Boston Whaler.  “I know Dean’s extensive product development and direct-to-consumer experience will propel Rayglass into the next era of growth and innovation.”
