Owners

Adam Paull
Adam founded ARMOR Industries, LLC, which operates as ARMOR Marine. He grew up in the San Juan Islands of Washington, where he found his passion for boats and the water.
As a Senior Engineer for John Deere marine engine programs, he designed, developed and launched diesel engines for off-highway and marine use. As a Sales Manager for HamiltonJet he built his expertise in waterjet applications and supported hundreds of waterjet installations. As technical manager at a Washington boat builder, he helped start the build of a 130′ Subchapter K diesel waterjet fast ferry.
Adam holds a BS in Mechanical Engineering and an MS in Engineering (automotive powertrain) from Kettering University, with more than 25 years of engineering experience. Patents: US 9,828,894 B2 (exhaust manifold with built-in EGR and coolant passages, for John Deere); US 10,336,414 B1 and US 10,780,958 B2 (buoyant hull collar assemblies).

Anne Paull
Anne runs the finance, accounting and administration side of ARMOR. She holds a BS in Accounting and an MBA from the University of Michigan.
With experience at several CPA firms and as a Senior Accountant at a large marketing company, she keeps ARMOR's accounting processes and systems running smoothly, so the shop can stay focused on the boats.
