A near perfect weather day here in Huntsville today...almost 20 degrees....more like June than April. Our staff was able to accomplish substantially more of our waterfront renovations today and in a couple of more days we should be done. The docks will then be open for business and we can get serious almost three weeks ahead of normal starting boat storage. The next phase is arranging the new inventory in proper display fashion which then opens up yard space for storage boats and customer parking.
I have taken a number of calls regarding our wake board tower special on for the month of April. This is a manufactures special and will not be extended into May. A number of our April inventory specials have been purchased...great early season deals. In talking with Crestliner today best possible delivery date is mid June on an ordered boat.
Service has started preparing some boats out of storage for this weekend. Congratulations to Paul and Jeremy in service as they have completed their Mercury and Mercruiser certification.
All is quiet on the Steelers front with the game schedule for 2010 posted tomorrow...we will be having a close look at the Buffalo game timing. Blue Jays going backwards...pitching but no hitting. Penguins and Crosby look strong! In just two months we will know who wins the cup.
CBC called today and are doing a piece on the G8 and how it is affecting business. I was on the list with my interview before with the Globe. For the marina it is at best a wash with a lost week. They wanted to know if I was planning something on Hwy 60 to attract the presidential masses into the marina to buy something. I said no...don't think the president of France is going to stop and buy a boat.
By the way lunch with the Prime Minister at Deerhurst...security 127 million...priceless!
