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.”

New Boats: Beneteau Oceanis 34.1 – A Sleek, Good -Looking Delight To Sail

By Katherine Stone

There is nothing more that I enjoy than being with friends and messing about in boats. Messing about in brand-new boats on a champagne sailing day on Lake Ontario at the beginning of the summer doesn’t get any better. To have the new owner, Helmuth Strobel and Anchor Yachts dealer Pancho Jimenez aboard made it even more special, as they can also speak to what they truly enjoy about the boat. We keep our own boat in a harbour that has a long waiting list for boats over 35 feet, so this little gem would definitely fit the bill and feels like a much bigger boat. True to the spirit of the 7th generation Oceanis line, the 34.1 is built in Poland and replaces the 35.1. It is 1,000 lbs lighter, 14 cm narrower and has 29% more sail area.
