Bayliner Boats - Marine Fabricators Association National Convention

Hi gang, Rick here from Bayliner Boats with information from The largest Marine Fabricators Association National Convention in more than a decade that was held January 13-15 in Stuart, Florida. The Jimmy Buffet-themed convention ("Join Us In Margaritaville") offered participants the chance to learn new techniques and tricks of the trade by participating in educational sessions, and provided copious opportunities to network.

There were over 100 fabricator attendees with full registration, and an additional 50 VIP passes were issued for fabricators who came to walk the show floor. The 35 exhibiting companies were very pleased with the lively turnout. MFA Division Director Beth Hungiville said that "many exhibitors and attendees commented that this was our best show ever!"

A major part of the convention's excitement was created by the announcement of a new MFA consumer boating Web site which will launch in the beginning of March. The home page will feature a two-minute video starring one of television's most popular boating personalities, John Greviskis, star of "Ship Shape TV," now in its 12th year.

Another convention record was set with 130 entries in the MFA Fabrication Excellence Awards--the largest participation in eight years--with over 20 awards given out.

A crew videotaped the pre-convention sessions and all the seminars, which will be available for purchase in the near future on the MFA website.

The MFA Excellence Award winners, the certification announcements and the "MFA National Convention Highlights and Wrap-up" will be featured on the MFA Web site .
