Say Hello to your new boat connection...I'm switching jobs.
 
Boat lifts are soon to be a thing of the past for me.

As of May 17th I'll be working at National Marine's Ft.Lauderdale FL office.
Ft.Lauderdale is National's new office. They are ramping up very fast. Business is strong, and the inventory will make your head spin. There's a bit of everything there, from a 27 Fever to a sporty new 51 OL!

I look forward to working with you all to get that bigger, faster, flashier boat that you've been wanting.

I can honestly say that I'll be able to ofer the best customer service, wonderful boats, and good deals.

I've been in customer service,and the marine industry long enough to know what it takes to keep a happy customer.
Don't hesitate to give me a call at the National office about any boat needs, or any boat you see on the website. www.nationalmarine.com
Remember, it costs you nothing to call.

I'll be posting some special deals in the classifieds before the end of May.

Hey Too Old- You wanted me to have the transom of your new 51 OL lettered "Hamburgler" right??;)

Congratulations Tim!!
When do you start?

Daze- I'll be there on the 17th.

PRTS- Yes the 51 is rather sporty. The 1200 Sterlings and #6s get it moving right along.

It sounds like the best thing to do is to take PRTS's Cig on trade for the 51 OL, then take BDs Outlaw on trade for PRTS's boat...:D

I'm really excited about this new job. It will be greatto be hand in getting people into some really sweet boats. Their intire inventory is special... there are no bland, "nothing" boats in stock..

Daze- You'll be seeing myself and National Marine at a lot of the FL Poker Runs coming up...

Good Luck Tim. That sounds like a great way to pay the bills.

Sounds like a real fun job. Good luck with it.

CigDaze 05-06-2004 09:31 AM

Great to hear, Tim. Look forward to seeing you out on the poker run tour with National.

They had quite a presence in Sarasota. From what I can gather and what Bob(otis311) can tell you, they're a first class operation. Best of luck...

Oh, and about the trade-in.......;) :)

Congrats TIM...

IDRPSTF 05-06-2004 10:15 AM

200 in the door
10 to the table
2 qualify
1 sale.

Welcome to new retail boat sales.
It was my most, and least favorite job at the same time.
Best of luck to you, it sounds like you are going in with the right attitude.
One quick little piece of advise. Offshore Powerboating is a VERY small community, take good care of your clients and they will brag about you. Screw over one person and you may as well change jobs!

Best of luck,
MD

Tim is a good guy to deal with,

Straight to the point, no BS

I have watched him sell lifts, He'll do just fine in the boat biz.

Sure do. As long as it is not a pontoon boat.;)

dockrocker 05-06-2004 10:46 AM

Congrats Tim!

ScottB 05-06-2004 10:47 AM

An extremely unlikely scenario, but if someone shows up with a pontoon boat to trade on a new Gladiator, you bet your ass you'll take it.

Good luck in the new gig you sales whore;)

LostinBoston 05-06-2004 10:50 AM

RollWithIt 05-06-2004 11:31 AM

Congratulations with the new job. I am sure that it will be much more enjoyable than selling boatlifts. Just being able to demo-ride the boats will be worth it.

SS930 05-06-2004 11:32 AM

Congrats and good luck Tim.;)

BODYSHOT1 05-06-2004 11:46 AM

otis311 05-06-2004 02:08 PM

Hey Tim, As you probably know. I just bought a boat from National in Florida and I cant say enough about Blume and Eddie and there treatment of me and my wife. I consider them friends more that business associates. Great team you will be working with


Good luck and enjoy your new profession. I think what IDRPSTFsaid sums it up the best about taking care of your customers.


Tell Blume I want my Damn boat , He'll know what your talking about

Tim G. 05-06-2004 02:09 PM

Thanks everyone. I'm really stoked about this.

Jonas- email or give me a call. I'll be sure to help your friend get the perfect boat.
