Chris Craft Corp dealers meeting Sarasota FL

Post by Don Ayers » Fri Jul 13, 2012 8:34 am

Anyone who has an interest.

As I write this I'm on a plane heading to the annual dealers meeting.

I've been invited to see the new 2013 models and plan to do some interviews of both Steve Heese and Stephen Juillus

Are there any messages or thoughts you would like me to convey on behalf of the CCABC membership and classic boaters? Pls post here.
Like please make a special edition inboard of the Silver Bullet!


I'm also meeting with Patti From the MM.

I realize this post was very short notice but the meeting was very productive and the CC Corp is very supportive of the CCABC. Some great relationships were continued and started.

I also got to spend time with Patti Hinson of the MM.

What a class act she is. Bless her heart she withstood two days of me and Wilson going on about boats!!!

A real trooper, a fantastic individual and friend of the CCABC.

More about this in an upcoming issue of the Brass Bell

It was a great weekend. Silver Bullet runs like a scalded dog and 22' Corsair rides like a dream...and then there is the new 36' Corsair with every imaginable option. It is always good to be with Steve and Stephen but a plus to be there with Don and Patti. As Don says she is a sweetheart...Perhaps my wife Pat, taking her aside helped her understand us. By the way Patti says Jerry Conrad is alive and well.

An oh...The new Brass Bell Don brought with him is gorgeous.

All's well
