Get to Know Rinkers Boat World

Q: Tell us about Rinkers Boat World?

A: “Rinkers Boat World is a third-generation, family-owned boat dealership with roots in boating that date back to the 1930s. The Rinker family launched the Rinker Boat Company in 1945, and that passion for boating has only grown since.

We opened our first dealership in Houston in 1978 and expanded to Lake Conroe in 2017. Today, we are proud to be known for our no-pressure sales approach, knowledgeable team and exceptional customer service. We are also honored to maintain a 5.0-star Google rating, something that reflects the trust our customers place in us.”

Q: Why did you choose to become a MasterCraft dealer?

A: “When Rinkers Boat World was given the opportunity to carry MasterCraft, we were truly astounded. It is something most dealers only dream of, an iconic name in the boating world and the reputation alone speaks volumes.

Beyond the name, what really drew us in is the brand’s commitment to innovation, performance and continually raising the bar with each new model and reveal. It also just made sense to add another stallion to the premier brands we already represent to promote the boating lifestyle.

To us, MasterCraft embodies the very best of boating; premium craftsmanship, cutting-edge technology and an unmatched on-water experience. We are proud to bring that to our customers.”

A Dealer Built by Boaters, For Boaters

Q: What is a fun fact about your team?

A: “Not many boat dealerships can say they have their own national-level powerboat racing team. At Rinkers Boat World, boating truly is in our DNA.

The Rinker family has a long history in competitive powerboat racing. Chris Rinker is a National Champion known for breaking speed records, while founder Jerry "Scary Jerry" Rinker and the next generation have earned championship titles of their own.

That same passion extends across our entire team. Our staff are genuine boaters who spend their free time on the water, which means our customers are working with people who truly understand the boating lifestyle.”

Q: What is your favorite thing to do behind a MasterCraft?

A: "It's simple. Get out on the water and enjoy it.

When our team first experienced the all-new MasterCraft XStar 25, we were blown away. The ride, the surf wave and the overall performance exceeded every expectation.

Each new MasterCraft model brings something exciting to the table, and we love exploring every feature, dialing in the perfect wave and helping customers experience it for themselves.

Honestly, every time a new model arrives, our team feels like kids in a candy store.”

Q: What makes the customer experience unique at Rinkers Boat World?

A: “Our Lake Conroe location gives customers a true on-water experience from day one.

Because we are located directly on the lake, complete with a private boat ramp and T-docks, customers can demo boats in real-world conditions. At delivery, we also provide hands-on training for launching, loading and docking, ensuring every owner feels confident before heading out on their own.

Our support does not stop after the sale. Customers can bring their boats to us by water, schedule pickup service or even request on-water assistance. We are committed to making boat ownership easy, convenient and enjoyable.”
