Every wonder why Engineering hates the sales guys?

Hate might be a strong word, but at least us sales guys have gotten a reprieve from being the proverbial face on the dart board. Thankfully, vendors, suppliers and shipping guys own that Grinch honor right now.

You'll see below that I am still doing my part to get that title back.

Start small..."Hey can we fit some of those fancy teak helm chairs on the 39?"

"Its not like your busy building a prototype 28XC or putting final designs on the 33CC?

"How about a Country Kitchen/ tackle center on the 39 and since you are already pouring some fiberglass, can we also get a casting platform/sun-pad up front"

"Heck, while the guys are cutting up the back of the 39 to make room for a tackle center, can we make some space for some rod storage in the 50?...and can you leave the aft bulkhead off the next three boats."

"You guys are getting good at that, so you don't mind designing from scratch a spiral stainless stairwell for the 61, do ya?"

So maybe they have a point, but we are still one big happy family. Happy Holidays

One at a time...
Want to know how boat building feels over the last seven months... like we lost an engine I track my brother on AIS. Weird, I know, but he's still out doing the traveling sportfish captain thing... and a while back I saw him coming into Nassau so just called to say hi. Posted on 27 Aug 2021
