About Happy Holiday Travel

Happy Holiday Travel Inc. has been part of Murray’s boating community since Grayson McClure started the family business in 1974. Don and Marsha McClure became the familiar faces of the company during the 1980s, and Jason and Tara McClure took over day-to-day operations in 2025. The business is now in its third generation, with members of the fourth generation already spending time around the dealership.

Pontoon boats remain at the center of the operation. Happy Holiday carries new and pre-owned inventory, including Godfrey brands such as SanPan, AquaPatio, Monaco, Sweetwater, and Xperience. New boats are paired with Yamaha outboard motors, and available models include a range of layouts, triple-tube designs, and performance packages. The selection gives boaters several options for cruising, fishing, and spending time with family and friends on Kentucky Lake, Lake Barkley, and other waterways across the region.

Sales are supported by a service department that stays involved well beyond the purchase. The team specializes in Yamaha outboards and also services Suzuki, Evinrude, Johnson, and Honda motors. Boat and canvas repair, replacement tops and covers, and indoor winter pontoon storage are also part of the operation. Keeping these services in one place gives owners a familiar point of contact for routine maintenance, repairs, seasonal work, and long-term care.

Happy Holiday’s turn-key service connects those parts of boat ownership into one seasonal routine. In the spring, the staff can meet owners at the boat ramp with the boat checked and ready for the water. At the end of the season, the team returns for pickup, then handles cleaning, service, needed repairs, and winter storage. It is a practical arrangement for boat owners who would rather spend their lake time boating than moving equipment between the ramp, repair shop, and storage building.

Located along Highway 94 East in Murray, Happy Holiday Travel Inc. serves customers across Kentucky and several neighboring states. More than five decades of family ownership have tied the business closely to the boating culture surrounding Kentucky Lake and the wider region.
