I regret to inform everyone that Frank Marchone passed away at 6:45am this morning.

RIP Uncle Frank.

Mike Lattomus and Frank were very good friends. Mike let me know this morning; and I will provide arrangements once he gets them to me.

I have Frank to thank for getting me into this sport. He cold called me many years ago with the perfect boat for me at the time, a 26' Sonic. He sold that boat 3 times; and probably sold 75% of the Sonics on the east coast back in the Jay Ross days.

So sad.

Frank was a good guy.
