About Sailaway Bay Marine

About Our Company

Sailaway Bay Marine, a Certified Yamaha Center, is owned and operated by Tyler Murphy. Born in Lake Wylie, Murphy literally grew up on the lake, always on or around boats. His love of going fast led him to motocross at an early age and into his teenage and early adult years. A long list of broken bones and multiple concussions eventually pushed him to walk away from the sport — and led him back to his first love: boats. That renewed passion for the lake and all things boats is what brought his dream and vision of Sailaway Bay Marine to life.

From its humble beginnings servicing clients out of a 2000 Ford Econoline E-250 van to opening a brand-new 3,000 square foot facility, Murphy has always relied on his 15+ years of experience servicing boats to go above and beyond for his clients. His attention to detail and commitment to 100% customer satisfaction have earned him a strong reputation in the surrounding boating communities.

When Murphy isn’t servicing a boat or helping a client sell one, you can bet he’s out on the lake on his boat, wakeboarding or surfing. He lives in Belmont, NC with his wife Anna and their two “fur-babies,” Moto and Meeko.
