Welcome to the new blog!

I would like to welcome you all to the new PBM blog. I will try to keep everyone up to date with the happenings and events here at Plantation Boat Mart.

This week we celebrated another great Miami Boat Show. We displayed 17 boats at the show including several of the new 4100CC's. The weather was perfect all weekend and we had the boats running all weekend long. While traffic at the show was off as everyone knows, we were please with the results and are excited to welcome several new customers to the Plantation Boatr Mart family. It looks like we will have several new faces at the PBM owner's tournament in June and at the Bimini Shakedown in July. We delivered 9 new boats between Friday (2/20) and Saturday (2/21).

Jorge Fernandez took delivery of his new 3300CC this weekend. We ran the boat up to Key Biscayne for him on Sunday and man does he have a nice boat!

I also want to say thank you to our friends at Maroone Chevrolet for getting us our new luxury suburbans in time for the boat show. They were SWEET and our clients enjoyed being shuttled around the show in style.

We also hosted our monthly Destination Plantation party on Saturday. It is part car show, part custom chopper show, part boat show and all about having fun and celebrating the fun lifestyle that makes boating special.

To round out what is already the busiest time of the year for us (boat show weekend) I personally had my own excitement. On Monday (2/16) during the last day of the Miami Boat Show, Monica (my pregnant wife) called me that she was heading to the hospital because of a high blood pressure reading. That high blood pressure reading turned out to be a complication that required the delivery of our triplets that night. At 6:37 PM, Jesse took his first breath, followed 1 minute behind by his sister Jocelyn and 1 minute later by brother Jeremy. As of today everyone is doing fine. The kids were born at 29 weeks, 3 days and weighed almost 3 pounds a piece. I promptly decorated each one of their incubators with a UM blanket so their would be no confusion which school to root for later on. I would like to thank everyone who called and emailed during the past week. It has been very exciting!
