Update 12/06/03 Got our first Cobalts!!!

I can't tell you how excited we are to get some 2004 product. All the builders we deal with are backed up and we received a truckload of Chaparrals and Cobalts in the same week.

So in the showroom right now we have the Chaparral 2004 210 Bow rider, 215 Cuddy, and 230 SSi. We're chomping at the bit to give you a look at the new 204 SSi Bow rider and the 236 Sunesta. Both of these are winners.

We also got in the 22 Launch that, if I we're to buy a 22 for myself is the one to get. The boat has teak, a green hull side, and even a stainless steel windshield! What a cool boat that looks like yesteryear, but if I bought her I'd stick a wakeboard tower on her with a subwoofer and torpedo speakers!

These Cobalts are sooo great! We have a 200, 220, 240 and 250. Just come in and look at the quality. I mean I think the Chaparrals are every bit a Sea Ray plus some and the Chris Crafts are unique but these Cobalts are practical like the Chaparrals and blow everything else out of the water for fit and finish. Steve's going to Cobalt service school and I'm going to the sales school in a week or so but be prepared to be blown away. Steve will be technical sales point man for Cobalt and Sam is going to Signature advanced school in January so he'll be technical sales point man for Chaparral and Chris Craft.

I've never been so happy with our product mix in all my life. We may not have a Taj Mahal like Prince William and we may not sell anything new over 35' but man we kick butt 19'-35' for sure!

Of course now that we are supporting 3 lines of boats with just Chuck, Kathleen and I to sell something will have to go and that's going to be brokerage. If you have a listing now we'll take care of you but starting in the spring you'll be working with Pilot House Marina for brokerage needs up to 32' and Yachts of Annapolis for larger boats. We feel we're not doing a good job with brokerage. We'll also have a FSBO program as follows: slip does not go with boat sale. List your boat on our Boat Trader listing site for $30 / month. We'll give you all the counseling you need about market value and paperwork for a flat fee of $250.
