Arizona Tribune - Luminsea Announces Strategic Agreement with Suntex, Launching at Miami Beach Marina, Following Landmark U.S. Coast Guard Regulatory Approval Milestone, Helping Expand its Mission to Create Safer Waterways

MIAMI, FL / ACCESS Newswire / October 28, 2026 / Luminsea, the leader in advanced illuminated aids to navigation and marine technology, and 2026 Miami International Boat Show (MIBS) Innovation Award winner, announces it entered into an agreement with Suntex Marina Investors, LLC, operating as Miami Beach Marina, marking a significant step in the company's continued growth and development of next-generation marine products and infrastructure.

Under the agreement, Luminsea will introduce its proprietary illuminated marine technology at Miami Beach Marina, one of Florida's premier waterfront destinations, a major hub for recreational boating and luxury yachting, strategically positioned at the gateway to the Atlantic Ocean. The initial installation will feature illuminated Luminsea Aids to Navigation (ATONs) along the marina's breakwater wall, marking a significant milestone in Luminsea's commitment to advancing marine infrastructure, while supporting its broader vision for navigation innovation to create safer waterways.

This establishes a framework for Luminsea's illuminated marker technology at approved locations. By integrating advanced lighting technology with modern marine infrastructure, this partnership aims to demonstrate how waterfront facilities can embrace innovation and improve waterway safety, while maintaining a focus on aiding boaters through advanced navigational tools. 

This adds to Luminsea's growing national and international marina network, with similar agreements set to enhance Molasses Reef Marina and Mariners Club Marina in Key Largo. These, in addition to multiple global agreements including Luminsea's first international instillation at Legendary Marina Resort at Blue Water Cay in Nassau Bahamas, represent an important milestone for Luminsea. These strategic partnerships improve waterway safety and help save lives.

Today's announcement comes on the heels of another significant achievement for Luminsea: receiving U.S. Coast Guard approval for its innovative LED Lighted Channel Marker technology Luminsea achieved this following a comprehensive review by the Coast Guard's Waterways Operations Product Line and its Physical Aids to Navigation division, a first-of-its-kind product to receive U.S. Coast Guard approval for use as a Private Aid to Navigation. This achievement marks a significant step forward in bringing Luminsea's next-generation navigation technology to waterways across the U.S., reinforcing the company's commitment to transforming marine safety through innovation.

Each marina, governmental port, and worldwide installation of Luminsea's ATONs creates interconnectivity and improves safety. The company is transforming aging and weathered traditional channel markers utilizing sustainable, eco-friendly materials, embedded with advanced technology that includes radar, sonar, wind sensors, and other components. Its new kinetic energy-absorbing, rotating sleeve system transforms traditional rigid channel markers into life-saving navigational aids, deflecting impact and reducing catastrophic collisions. This creates safer, more reliable navigation aids that are part of a comprehensive data-gathering infrastructure.
