“I am excited about being a team member with AM USA. It's going to be a great endeavor taking care of the deliveries & service needs of our clients. With 30 years of experience in the boating industry I am looking forward to taking care of any and all service needs for our customers. I Started working in the marine industry after years of working in the automotive industry. I enjoy working on boats and being outside in the sun and in fresh air. A work day on the water is always better than a work day in a shop.”
“I am looking forward to being a part of the Alexander Marine USA team and representing clients as they search for the perfect yacht. We are positioned well to help our clients achieve what they have worked so hard to get. Whether a brand new 70 to 155 foot Ocean Alexander Motor Yacht, a new Regal family weekend cruiser, or a new Pursuit o shore pro fishin machine we o er an e cellent mi of proven products to choose from. Our team has a solid background helping clients purchase quality brokerage yachts anywhere in the world and assisting them in selling their current boat at our premiere water ront o fices and doc s on the Pacific oast Highway in the middle of Mariners Mile in Newport Beach.”

AM USA Gives Back to the Community of San Juan Island
A
t the 2016 Alexander Marine Rendezvous, participation in the dinghy parade was more meaningful than ever. For every dinghy that participated, Alexander Marine pledged to donate to Purple and Gold, the local booster club for Friday Harbor High School. This organization is an especially important one for the island. They monetarily help students in need participate in sports, provide volunteers at events, award scholarships for post secondary education, and more. As a result of record setting participation in the dinghy parade, Alexander Marine was able to write a check for $1,000 for Purple & Gold. Two members of the organization, Casey (treasurer) and Tim (former member) were at the event to accept the donation. San Juan Island is a special place for many people and Alexander Marine is grateful to be able to give back to such a wonderful community.

BOAT SHOW
T
he San Diego International Boat Show is one of multiple shows formerly owned and operated by NMMA but now run by the Duncan McIntosh Company. The Duncan McIntosh Company already oversees a number of boat shows, including the Newport Boat Shows (both fall and spring) and multiple marine publication companies (Sea Magazine, the Log, and more), making the new ownership a reat fit. The 2016 San Diego Boat Show ran over Father’s Day Weekend with beautiful weather typical for Southern California. The star of the show was the 72’ Ocean Alexander. The boat even made a special feature on the local ABC morning news. Michael Vrbas was interviewed as our company representative. A Super Yacht VIP ni ht was hosted the first ni ht o the show
and had a great turnout of customers attending to see the larger yachts. Alexander Marine offered a selection of drinks and appetizers for attendees to enjoy while viewing the show boats. The 28’ Regal Express displayed by Alexander Marine was a popular boat over the wee end. he eet o e als a ailable at the show (28’ Express, 42’ Sport Coupe, and 46’ Sport Coupe) made a considerable impression, creating popularity with local San Diego boaters. Overall, the Alexander Marine display was well appreciated, producing many leads on all of our boats on display. The 2016 San Diego Boat Show allowed Alexander Marine to expose local boaters to our wide range of vessels from express cruisers to megayachts.
After hours at the show with appetizers from AM USA.
