You know.... we were amazed that Chris's phone didn't ring as we went buzzing by you guy's place. He says one of you two almost always see/hear it when a go-fast is buzzing around out there! LOL......

FYI ---- I saw your Glad. at OP... what a clean boat ----- really nice!

What makes it the best, is determined on what the boat is intended for..OL makes a great boat, but so does Nor-Tech, Cig and Hustler. Nothing is selling, it's the economy, and none of the OL are bargin priced to begin with, and then you have some of the undesirable dealers to deal with that are not above board. The 36 I believe also to be a good marketing stratogy if priced right. That has yet to be seen over the years. The days of getting 250-300k more for a epoxy resin baked infused hull are gone. That is the only difference between OL and the others...and when it comes down to it...is it really worth it, there are draw backs to it as well. Jeff

You MUST be talking about the person who just sold my little ski boat (me), right?

....Oh, no ----- I guess you are talking about Chris. haha.

Seriously... yes, there is no way to stick around in this business selling Cigarettes for 25 years without having integrity and actually caring about people (which is very clear with Chris). Maybe his next 25 years will be selling OL's (although he is getting to be a crusty ol' guy ---- maybe we should shoot for "12" more years ------ haha. only kidding Chris....).
