And now...for something Completely different.... Back before my wife had her terrible accident, we both worked for the largest Sea Ray Dealer in the world; MarineMax, in Tampa, FL. She was the office manager and I was a Yacht salesman (before I was promoted to corporate as eCommerce Manager for 74 stores nationwide). My claim to fame back then was I sold this young, 20 year old pimply faced blond kid a 48 Sedan Bridge! When I was qualifying him for financing, he told me he was the lead singer for a band. When he asked, Have you ever heard of the #BackstreetBoys? I told him that I recall having heard of them...then when he told me his name was #NickCarter...(btw, of COURSE I knew of them) I played it up... Oh yeah! It IS YOU! lol. My daughter has posters of you and the boys all over her room! Long story short, I got to deliver him his beautiful $880,000 #SeaRay 48 Sedan Bridge by motoring from our Clearwater store over to our on-the-water location in #ApolloBeach, which was where he lived at that time. I got to bring my wife along for the experience. Im tellin you...those twin-screw #CAT3126 diesel engines could sure put out a wake! It was a blast being able to put the 1st 6 hours on that vessel. 2 with my wife and I alone and 4 while training Nick and his girlfriend, #MandyMoore on proper and safe boating operations. It was the pinnacle of my career there. What a blast it was! :)
