Meet The Team
Gavin Johnstone
Founder
Meet GavinGavin Johnstone, the founder of Ocean Performance, is the driving force behind our motivation to excel, advance, and provide exceptional and innovative solutions to our clients. Having always thought his life path would take him to the sky, it wasn’t until after he graduated from the University of Victoria that he fully realized his passion was for the sea.
Gavin brings over 14 years of hands-on experience in multiple roles within the marine industry. He is a Certified Marine Service Technician (MST), holds current Advanced Electronics and Advanced NMEA 2000 Installer certifications from the National Marine Electronics Association as well as an ABYC Marine Electrical endorsement. Gavin also has professional training in project management and is a certified Garmin, Navico (B&G, B&G H5000 & Simrad) and Airmar technician. Outside of Ocean Performance, Gavin instructs future MST’s through the Quadrant Marine Institute.
His passion for boats extends well beyond his professional life. Sharing a trawler with his father, Gavin has been enjoying exploring thousands of miles along the BC coast. Some of his fondest memories and places include secluded anchorages and hot springs in the Great Bear Rainforest, Desolation Sound and the local Gulf Islands. When not cruising, he has also logged many miles under sail, circumnavigating Vancouver Island and racing in the Caribbean.
