Smile 200 Smiles

I just got back home from Orlando Florida where Reindl Powerboats was the main attraction for Daimler Chrysler Speed Week. We gave 140 people rides on Tuesday and about 60 on Thursday. "Iam still dizzy" All these people are now Offshore Powerboat fans. All smiles even from the few that were a little nervous getting in such a boat. Besides the batboats Reindl Powerboats arranged a Super V, a 28ft open canopy batboat, and a F1 boat. Its Saturday night the neighbors probably have stopped calling the cops about the noise of Super V thundering around the small lake. If anybody wants to have an awesome corporate event call Reindl Powerboats. Chrysler is glad they did.

Now that's cool. Take 200 non boaters for a ride in a bat boat and watch em smile. That had to be the highlight of their event.

Nice marketing work. Who put that together? Tara?

Chris,
We had a blast and from everyone I sat and spoke with had a blast. It was a great way to introduce people to Offshore racing,with a positive spin.

It was Ken Doyles new 38 Phantom. It is one AWSOME boat.
It was a great week up in Orlando. Everyone had a blast, including me with my broken wrist. I still have a good throttle arm.
It was great meeting you Frank and Trent, will see you soon in Miami.
Brent who has the 28 open Bat boat dressed up as Bat Man and was driving around with his cape flying.
I am sure we will have some more Offshore fans because of events like this.
There will be a video link to it soon, when I get it I will post it.

Smiles? Looked more like . It was kinda cool to listen to what the people were saying before and after the rides. They were like little kids waiting in line to get on a roller coaster ride Than they would come over to check their lap times against the other drivers. What a great concept for a corporate event. A fun time had by all.

I can only wonder what went through the minds of the drivers when the Super V came blasting by them.
