Brownie's Marine Group is a small marine technology company that makes and sells portable air and underwater breathing systems for recreational divers, boaters, and safety professionals. The company operates five subsidiaries. Brownie's Third Lung designs and manufactures surface-supplied air systems for shallow-water use, including the Sea Lion floating air platform and the BIAS boat-integrated, battery-powered dive kit aimed at yacht builders. BLU3 makes a backpack-portable, battery-powered single-diver system using patented software-driven breathing control, sold primarily direct-to-consumer via its website and Amazon. LW Americas is the exclusive distributor of L&W high-pressure compressors across North, Central, and South America, serving diving, industrial, defense, and aviation end markets. Submersible Systems manufactures compact emergency breathing devices, including the Spare Air backup dive supply, the HEED helicopter egress device, and the SWBA, sold globally through dive shops, safety distributors, and military channels. Live Blue runs guided dive tours as a "try before you buy" channel for the company's battery-powered products, which Brownie's Marine Group views as an incubator for a potential franchise model. The company sells through wholesale to dive shops, marine stores, and OEM boat builders, as well as direct-to-consumer and to military customers. A key strategic theme is transitioning the product line from gasoline-powered systems to battery-powered, software-enabled alternatives, alongside expanding LWA's distribution network across the Americas and growing the yachting market opportunity.
