Founder Captain Todd R. Hurley

Captain Todd Hurley, owner of Hurley Marine, not only has a lifetime of boating experience but has a diversified background as a Merchant Marine Captain, business owner, manager and hands-on entrepreneur.

More than a decade ago, Todd had an idea for an easier way to secure the dinghy to the platform of a boat, making it easy to access, secure and launch. In that moment, he conceptualized the Hurley Marine Davit and would soon reinvent on-deck dinghy storage for the entire marine industry He now assists countless boaters globally.

Inspiration was the source of invention for Todd once again when he patented an innovative design for underwater lights that requires no holes in the hull. Installation is quick and easy. Prior to these Trim Tab Lights, consumers only had the option of Thru Hull Lights, requiring large holes below the waterline. The old style lamps had to be replaced from inside of the boat. A major problem with the old design is that most of boaters don’t have the space in the engine room required to replace the bulb. The Hurley Trim Tab Lights eliminate this issue. The lights are also fully adjustable using the trim controls.

The Drain Plug Light is yet another invention that yeilds great convenience. It provides boaters an easy, cost-effective way to light up their sterns. Installation is as simple as unscrewing your drain plug, slipping the power cord in, and screwing the Drain Plug Light into your garboard drain. It is an easy way to enhance the ambience during nighttime boating. test
