Vision Marine Technologies (VMAR) announced that its subsidiary, Nautical Ventures Group, has entered into a strategic dealership agreement with Twin Vee PowerCats (VEEE), securing exclusive distribution rights for Broward County, Florida. The agreement grants Nautical Ventures sole rights to sell and distribute Twin Vee products within a defined territory reserved for its dealership network. Initial inventory deliveries are anticipated within the coming weeks. In connection with this agreement, Vision Marine and Nautical Ventures are collaborating with Twin Vee on the development of two custom "Adventure Edition" models, designed specifically for distribution through Nautical Ventures' network.

Vision Marine Technologies provided an update on growing commercial demand for electric boats, highlighting its impact on 2026 production commitments and broader market development. The company said, "As of March 2026, the Company reports that its 2026 electric boat production is substantially committed based on current commercial and retail agreements, providing early-year visibility on production planning, with commercial fleet operators representing a significant portion of this allocation. Over the past twelve months, Vision Marine has seen increasing commercial activity from operators across multiple locations including Florida, California, Virginia, Michigan, and international markets such as Melbourne, Australia. These deployments include initial integrations into commercial fleet platforms, expanding multi-unit rollouts, and ongoing fleet renewal cycles, indicating a shift toward recurring procurement within the commercial segment. The renewal of existing commercial fleet platforms, the expansion of established operators, and the onboarding of new operators in additional markets are increasingly contributing to demand, reflecting a constructive indicator of growing adoption of electric boating for commercial use. Commercial operators are adopting electric boats based on operational considerations including simplified maintenance, improved uptime, and ease of use in high-utilization environments. As commercial fleet platforms expand and renew, these operators contribute to recurring demand while also providing increasing on-water exposure of electric boating across multiple markets, which may support broader consumer awareness and future adoption. Vision Marine's experience in operating electric rental fleets, in California, with tens of thousands of completed rentals, supports this adoption cycle and provides operational validation of electric propulsion in commercial settings."

Vision Marine Technologies announced a 446% increase in electric boat sales under contract for the period beginning September 1, 2025 through late February 2026, compared to the same period in the prior year. Maxime Poudrier, Chief Operating Officer of Vision Marine, stated: "The year-over-year increase in sales under contract reflects more than demand growth; it reflects stronger operational alignment between retail execution and production planning. Early-season commitments across multiple electric platforms provide clearer model-level visibility and enable disciplined production allocation. Our objective is not simply volume expansion, but controlled deployment that supports sustainable margins and scalable electric growth."

Vision Marine Technologies announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office has granted two U.S. patents covering foundational elements of its E-Motion 180E 180hp electric marine propulsion system. Both patents were issued on February 10, 2026, following applications filed in 2024. U.S. Patent No. 12,549,532 "Cryptographic Authentication of Components in an Electric Vessel" (VM1001US01) protects Vision Marine's secure component authentication framework. The patent covers encrypted verification between propulsion control units, battery management systems, and interface modules, designed to prevent unauthorized component substitution and strengthen cybersecurity within high-voltage marine systems. U.S. Patent No. 12,548,842 "Battery Pack for an Electric Marine Vessel" (VM1004US01) protects structural and control architecture specific to marine battery integration. The patent addresses mechanical reinforcement, vibration management, safety monitoring, and system communication tailored for dynamic marine operating environments.
