Hello from sunny Muskoka! A short period of overcast and light rain this morning followed by blue sky, light clouds and lots of warm sunshine. It has been windy very windy over the last two days with some significant chop and waves on Fairy Lake. I enclosed a picture of a 214FS Monterey heading west towards the mouth of the river into town. Waves up to 3' and lots of the famous Fairy cross chop. Not a problem for the Monterey...build to handle salt water! The other scene shot shows our landmark crooked pine tree just out from the entrance to the marina. You can see it gracefully bending over with the wind and soaking up the sunshine.
The marine business to no surprise is based on good hot summers and a strong economy. We sell wants and lots of them in various colours, sizes and styles. The first enclosed pictures are all new boats heading out to their new owners. A Crestliner 2185 Grand Cayman pontoon, a 180H Four Winns, a 16 Legend Genesis pontoon and lastly a Crestliner 1650 Canadian with a 90 Optimax. New boat buyer from Orillia, Camp Lake, Niagara Falls and the Burk's Falls area. The boat business like may others is constantly changing. A very high percentage of our buyers start on our web site. Just today we had a web specialist look at our site and he felt our was one of the best he has looked at this year for a marine operation of this size. Nice to hear we are going in the right direction and this guy is in the states and looks at lots of marine sites. Anyway for those looking we still have a good selection and the pricing is great...save some dough and get out on the water!
Our first shipment of Manitou Pontoons is arriving Friday AM! With the requests for information from particularly out east and throughout Ontario...seems to be a good fit and a great boat! As I write this the sweat is dripping down onto the keyboard!
I will be going in for shoulder surgery on August 5th in Collingwood for an old I believe baseball injury to my left shoulder. I can't get this done in Huntsville and the specialist only gets the meat cleaver out in Collingwood. I have delayed this operation a couple of times this summer as way too busy and if I delay again...not good shall we say! Most likely on limited duty here for a couple of weeks. Problem with all this...I have been sliced and diced three times...know exactly what is coming! Looking forward too it...really!
