Team AMSOIL #77 Gears up for the 2009 Season after Race Boat is Displayed at Los Angeles Boat Show and Highlighted at Miami International Boat Show
The 53rd Annual Los Angeles Boat Show opened February 7th at the Los Angeles Convention Center, where attendees were able to see Team AMSOIL’s silver Skater up close. The show featured a staged indoor race compound, complete with the Team’s Freightliner that tows the boat and all support vehicles. Many people enjoyed viewing the race boat in its titled position on the trailer, complete with a light positioned to illuminate the inside of the cockpit. A large display of AMSOIL products were showcased as well as various checkered flags achieved by the Team. Hero cards were given out to race fans and poster size versions of the hero cards were framed near the boat. Team T-shirts were also available for puchase.
Not to be outdone by the AMSOIL festivities in Los Angeles, the race boat was well represented in Teague Custom Marine’s booth in the Miami International Boat Show as well. The Miami Boat Show opened on February 12th and continued through February 16th. Banners featuring lists of team achievements and different photos of the AMSOIL boat were suspended over 10 feet in the air around the perimeter of the booth. The most impressive display was a near life size photo backdrop of the AMSOIL boat for all to see. Bob Teague was on hand to answer questions and greet race fans during both boat shows.
Teague Custom Marine is proud to be an authorized AMSOIL dealer and offers the complete line of high performance lubricants in its store and for purchase online.
Team AMSOIL captured virtually every title possible in the Cat Lite Class during the 2008 racing season. The Team is the current OPA Cat Lite High Points Champion, OSS National and High Points Cat Lite Champion, and SBI Super Cat World Champion.
