A special thanks to Scott Rhodes, AKA gran398!!
« on: September 13, 2014, 11:37:20 PM »
As a long time member of Classic Aquasport, I wanted to take a little time to thank another long time member and truly an incredible resource and Aquasport advocate, Scott Rhodes, gran398 to the uninitiated.  Scott goes over and above to promote the Aquasport brand, to espouse the Aquasports abilities, the looks, the performance...in short, a true Aquasport fan, through and through.  Oh, there are Mako fans, GW fans, Seacraft fans....but Scott never bad mouths those makes, although we will see others on those "other" sites bad mouth Aquasport...a true gentleman.

What he has done in regards to getting "deals" for Aquasport owners regarding switch panels, logos, upholstery, has done nothing but benefit every member on here...and we don't really show our appreciation.  So, tonight, I just wanted to show mine.  Thanks Scotty, for all you do.  My hat's off to you, Bro!!! :salut:  :salut:

Bob, thank you very much, and guys, thanks too!

I'm no different than most of the members here. It is fun and rewarding to help your friends. Unlike our excellent Masters, I'm of no help with electricity, systems, or nuts and bolts. But separating the good vendors from the bad, striking deals, etc....have done it since I was old enough to trade two sticks of gum for a lollipop :lol:  So these various projects are a pleasant challenge and give me something to do at work when I'm not fleecing tourists :mrgreen:

The companies in the Vendors forum we have personally done business with, and are recommended as an honest and safe source for your outfitting needs.

It is my wish, with Rick's approval, to next build the "Aquasport Gear" section. Stuff you see on other sites....coozies, shirts, hats, helm pads, etc.,etc.....items that say "Aquasport" and show our pride in this great brand.

Best to all, thanks again, and Happy Aquasporting! :flower:

Not only do I think your nuts, it doesn't count cause I told you that already..... . We had a frost 2 days ago that put the garden to bed even though we were not ready for it.

Latest culinary delight was Laura's Mom's doughnut recipe cooked in peanut oil...

Here's to you Brother!!! :salut:  :salut:  :salut:  :salut:
