Marlow-Hunter Rendezvous at Specialty Yachts

Marlow Hunter Rendezvous 2014

The 2014 summer rendezvous schedule starts with truly something special, “We congratulate our long time dealer consistently in the Top 10 in sales and customer service on being in business for 50 years”, stated Mr. John T Peterson, President of Marlow-Hunter, LLC.  “And there isn’t a better way to kick off the season, than to be at the Specialty Yachts Rendezvous for the 35th consecutive year,” Peterson went on to elaborate..

With over 120 boats expected for this event held at Thetis Island at Telegraph Harbour Marina, Mr. Lawrence Fronczek, owner and President of Specialty Yachts, states, “Our success started with my father some 50 years ago this summer by placing the customer on a pedestal and never taking your eye off of him.  It is a constant focal point of our organization as we have now sold new and used over 3,000 sailboats.  This year’s rendezvous is just one example, although a very visible one, of an extension of our total customer focus, and it all centers around what boating is…fun.”

Tahiti—Updates from Paradise

By Zuzana Prochaska

I’ve been to Tahiti seven times—six on charter and once as crew for a couple of yachties. Over the 25 years that I’ve been visiting, it’s changed dramatically. Yet, inexplicably, it has also stayed the same.
