BLAB BLOG 4/4/05 - Great show - boat orders...

Just back from the Rhode Island Saltwater Anglers Association Expo in Providence.

WOW! What a great show. We had folks crawling all over the boats. Really makes me proud. Again, like the Massachusetts Striped Bass Expo we had a good number of owners there as well as gents whose boats are on order along with people buying boats all interacting, comparing, talking and enjoying each other's company- great stuff.

This morning Chris Gatley from New Jersey (www.ardentangler.org) a professional guide, outdoor writer and radio host picked up his V23 and headed south. Look for chris in national magazines, fishing shows and in "On the Water"...

Also this morning one of the young Maine State Game Wardens I spoke of in a post last week came in and took a demo ride this AM and then ordered a V23 with a hardtop and a Honda 150 - Congrats to Brian T.!

Had a gent Paul K. from Old Saybrook, CT come to the show and order a boat - Paul's been wanting one of our boats since 1997 and has waited and saved since then - he's about 10 weeks from fulfilling that wish!

While driving back from Providence I was thinking about this blog. It seems as if many of you are reading on a regular basis from comments I'm hearing - thank you. I enjoy writing this as well but it affords no interaction. So I thought that maybe I'd start another blog on the site called "Q&A BLOG". The idea is that readers can email me any questions they may have about the boats, the materials, the design, the options - anything and each day that I'll answer questions in this other blog - see button to the left.

Hank G. from Newburyport also suggested that I switch the order of entry so that the most recent posting is on top - if I can figure out how to do so without re-typing all of this I will do so.
