About Us

We are a family-run, locally owned business that has been operating on Vancouver Island since 1972. Originally, Trotac Marine was founded by Pete Thomson and his wife Chris. What started as a marine supply store for Pacific Northwest commercial fishing fleets has since evolved into one of Canada’s most recognized marine supply store. Today, the company is run by Pete’s son, Campbell, along with his daughter Jessalyn and son Ben. With over 3 generations working to propel the business, it’s no wonder why Trotac Marine is one of the country’s most trusted marine suppliers and service providers.
