Owner
BoatThings LLC
(Retail industry)
February 2008 — Present (1 year 6 months)
BoatThings is a store for people who love to get out on the water; those who cruise, race, fish, drift, float, and dream about getting on the water. We spend our time researching the best products out there. We focus on quality. We use the products that we sell, so we know that we can stand behind them. Our products are of the highest quality and we are authorized dealers for everything we sell.
Brian, with his wife, Meghan, made the decision to launch BoatThings.com for people who love to get out on the water. Also, keep an eye out for us at boat shows throughout the Mid-Atlantic region. -
