What are you likely to find at boat shows? Everything you see in that picture above! Boats, fast cars, beautiful women, and hard working First Mate Yacht Care employees! Maybe this is the year Pete will finally have his midlife crisis and pick up a sports care instead of just leaning on one!

Remember those stunning photos Trevor and Adam got of Octopus?

If you’ve never heard of the island, you’re probably not [...]
