As it is the end of our year, we looked back on all of the brokerage boats we've sold this year because it seemed like there was always a contract pending or someone looking at them!  We sold a total of 9 brokerage boats this year with 7 of them being Mathews Boats.  We've welcomed many people into the Mathews family this year and are excited to have them on board!  We only have 2 Mathews Boats left in our Brokerage Category so Who's Ready to Build One?

Captain Snag was our most recent Settlement and will be fixed up by  the owner & his father

Dreamtime was settled on in November

Pegasus soon to be named Chessie

Triton now named Relish

Nancy Lou, soon to be named Brindisi

Barbara A now named Blackwatch in her new home

Madeline was sold to a couple from New York

Bay Tripper was sold to a couple from Annapolis

JWB now Flora B

Here, There & Everywhere!

This has been one of those weeks that we did a little bit of everything - everyone has those don't they?  We hauled one more boat for the winter, Pete trailered one here for repairs.  The guys are still winterizing boats both here at the shop and at owner's docks.  Here in the office, we had settlement on the Mathews 22' that we had for sale.  In between everything, Pete found time to head up to NJ to look at a boat for an estimate on repairs.  I'm sure that we'll have plenty of those to put estimates in on, unfortunately.   Otherwise, we're gearing up for a cold winter and a Happy Holiday Season!

Busy Busy Busy!

Here in the office, Annie and Pete have been busy with brokerage settlements as well as getting contracts signed for new deals!  We currently have contracts on 3 different boats with one of those settlements scheduled for tomorrow.  They had a settlement on the Cape Dory 28, Dreamtime, last week and another settlement already scheduled for next month!!  We have three MathewsBros Boats for sale currently - Who's ready for a NEW one?  FREE Maintenance for 2 years with the purchase of a NEW MathewsBros Boat!!

Outside, in the shop, and in storage the guys are busy preparing for winter between moving boats around into their respective storage spaces and/or winterizing all of the boats that we have for the winter.

Why Winterize your Boat?  

Winterizing your boat is an important preventive maintenance process which maintains the integrity of your engine, and any other kind of plumbing you may have aboard.  Winterization prevents damage from water expanding when frozen and also prevents corrosion from damaging anything else over the winter.

"Madeline" is in New Hands!

From New York to Rock Hall, MD is the trip that the New Owners of Madeline will be making as much as they possibly can!  This couple from New York very happily purchased one of our Beautiful 40's earlier this month and want to get as much time on the boat as they can.  This couple had seen Madeline several times at Boat Shows and just absolutely love the boat - So much so that they're leaving her name Madeline and are leaving her in Rock Hall.

Bay Cruiser 22'

Another one of Our Boats found a New Home yesterday!  The 2000 22' Bay Cruiser originally named Triton was bought by customers who have been looking for a MathewsBros Boat for 4+ years and have at last found the deal for them.  We trailered the boat to a ramp local to their home in Sherwood, MD.  The owners then motored Relish home.
