Evolution Marine wants customers to know that when you walk into their doors, you’re going to be treated like family.

That’s a principle they’ve maintained — now for 30 years strong.


Open since 1988, Evolution Marine has two stores — one at 3361 La. Highway 70 in Morgan City and the other at 1413 Barrow Street in Houma.

The business offers marine engines, outboard motors and board accessories of various brands that are all reputable for their quality and durability. Evolution Marine also repairs select parts and accessories, as well as boat engines.

Owner Donna Catrett said Evolution Marine’s mission is simple: offer quality products and quality service — all while treating people right. She said she takes pride in knowing that several of the business’s customers have been buying from the store since it opened — a sign that she believes shows that the business is doing a lot of things right.


“A lot of our clients are repeat customers and become like family,” Catrett said. “We insure customer satisfaction. We built our business on offering great service relationships before and after the sale. We believe that having great service ensures that our business will thrive.”

Evolution Marine started in Morgan City as a Mercury Outboard Dealer. That store succeeded, which led to expansion and the Houma store, which opened in 2000.

Catrett said customer service is key to Evolution Marine, but selling quality products is important, too.


She said the Mercury Marine line is elite, constantly evolving to satisfy the needs of any outdoorsman looking to have the best of the best — even if on a tight budget.

“The quality and reliability of Mercury outboards and an awesome warranty to back up their products are a great selling point,” Catrett said. “We offer great prices and our service department has received an award from Mercury for customer satisfaction.” •
