<h3>About Taco Metals (TACO Marine)</h3><p><strong>Taco Metals</strong> has been a cornerstone of the recreational marine industry since its founding in 1959. What began as a small aluminum fabrication company started by Dave Kushner has grown into one of the most respected full-service marine manufacturing enterprises in the world. Operating under the <strong>TACO Marine</strong> brand, the company serves both OEM boat builders and aftermarket customers with a comprehensive lineup of hardware, accessories, and sport fishing products engineered to endure the harshest marine environments.</p><p>In the early 1970s, TACO Metals made its move into the boating world as South Florida emerged as a hub for the recreational marine industry — and the brand quickly became a go-to source for builders and fabricators alike. Over the decades, the company expanded its footprint across Florida, Tennessee, and South Carolina, while also growing into international markets. When founder Dave Kushner retired in the early 1990s, his three sons — Jon, Mike, and Bill — carried the torch, driving a new era of innovation that produced some of the brand&apos;s most iconic product lines.</p><h3>Innovation Built for the Water</h3><p>TACO Marine&apos;s engineering team has a long history of developing patented, category-defining products. Perhaps most notably, the brand pioneered the <strong>Grand Slam line of outrigger mounts and poles</strong>, which set a new standard for performance and reliability in sport fishing. Their <a href="/7597-taco-metals-outriggers-accessories-202318">outriggers and accessories</a> remain among the most trusted systems on the water, favored by tournament anglers and weekend sport fishers alike. The Grand Slam 280 and 390 outrigger bases are widely regarded as benchmarks for the category, featuring detented rotation handles, telescoping poles, and industry-leading warranties.</p><p>Beyond outriggers, TACO Marine&apos;s catalog spans a wide range of essential marine categories. Their rub rail systems — available in stainless steel, aluminum, and vinyl — protect hulls with durable, corrosion-resistant materials. The company also offers premium seating solutions including helm chairs and leaning posts, canvas and tower hardware, rod holders, and specialty marine fabrication components. Whether you&apos;re outfitting a new build or upgrading an existing vessel, TACO Marine&apos;s <a href="/7597-taco-metals-outriggers-accessories-200753">outrigger accessories</a> and hardware provide a seamless, high-quality fit.</p><h3>Trusted by Builders and Boaters Worldwide</h3><p>One of TACO Metals&apos; greatest strengths is its ability to serve both the OEM and aftermarket channels. Boat builders, marine fabricators, distributors, dealers, and repair yards all depend on TACO products to meet their design and performance needs. The company&apos;s manufacturing capabilities include CNC machining, precision aluminum extrusion, powder coating, and anodizing — all supported by more than 150,000 square feet of warehouse space for reliable, just-in-time delivery.</p><p>TACO Marine backs its products with industry-leading warranties and a dedicated customer service and technical support team. The brand&apos;s commitment to innovation is ongoing — from patented rub rail navigation lights and ball-and-socket canvas top fittings to the award-winning ShadeFin&reg; shade system. For anglers and boaters who demand the best, TACO Metals is a brand that has earned its place on the water — one innovative product at a time.</p>
