CARBON MARINE LLC
TAMPA, FLORIDA

Carbon Marine LLC is a pioneer in the development of high-quality carbon fiber accessories for inshore fishing boats. Established in May 2007 by Joe Welbourn, the company was born out of a need identified by Welbourn when he attempted to purchase an adequate tiller handle extension for his small inshore fishing boat and found none that met his standards. Leveraging survey data gathered from fishermen's forums, the initiative began as a hobby which quickly evolved into a full-fledged business. Carbon Marine has since broadened its product line, offering innovative items such as CastingPillar, PolingPillar, PushPillar, and tiller handle extensions. These products are unique in their construction material—carbon fiber—making Carbon Marine the first company to focus exclusively on carbon fiber inshore boat accessories. The underlying philosophy guiding Carbon Marine is similar to that used by aerospace engineers and race car designers: carbon fiber's combination of lightness and strength marks it as a material for advanced fabrication, positioning it at the forefront of future manufacturing techniques. Joe Welbourn has extended his expertise beyond marine products, having fabricated other non-marine carbon fiber items for various companies. Carbon Marine LLC is registered under Florida Models, DOS with the status FLAL and was incorporated on October 13, 2011. The company's registration details include a filing number of L11000117352, and it operates primarily out of Tampa, Hillsborough County, Florida. It recently filed its annual report for the year 2024, with an FEIN of 454605649. The company remains active under the leadership of Joe Welbourn as the Manager.
