Thanks, it was really nice meeting you and your dad a few weeks back. Are you working on OP's big truck out back where the boat is? If so, I have to give you a lot of credit, that would take quite the mechanic to take apart, and reassemble a rig like that.

I had the pleasure of meeting Chris at the Atlantic City boat show a few years back. Very pleasant and down to earth. We were discussing my 28 and said he had plenty of nice used parts from cig's of that era and if he could be of any help to call him. Great guy.

You should see the parts they have a Ocean Performance. Tractor trailer truck loads. At the last club swap meet, held at their facility, it was amazing to see all the parts they have collected over the 30+ years doing business.

The last OP swap meet I went to was back in 1988 when they were in the small building across from the Fish House restaurant. (Poseidon Adventure, mmm goood) -Hope they have another this fall!

I also have had great dealings with them. They even helped Stinson and I swap drives and TV's from one car to another. Hell he even took care of a sticker problem for me a while back!

I couldn't agree more with all of these posts! Chris has been great to me for years and has always worked with me my budget. Everyone there is great to deal with. Carol makes you feel like family, Billy the service manager has always been extremely helpful and more then fair. Chuck is the most conscienceous mechanic I have ever met and has done an amazing job rigging my boats. It is great place to stop in it is always a great time and a wealth of knowledge, but I hang out for the stories!

Even Old School guys like me, like Chris and the way he does business.

He is very knowledgeable about the whole offshore scene because he has mainly been there and done it.

We are very fortunate to have him and his associates in the New England area, to help with the many necessary problems of keeping offshore boats up and running.
