Thank you, Cindy! It has been great to work with you. Thank you for all your patience and advice along the way. When we started and in the rate environment, I didn’t think I would land at the rate where we ended. Thank you for doing so much to keep our rate low and manageable.

Thank you very much Cindy for making this such a smooth process for us especially being our first time to do this. Your expertise and quick responsiveness was greatly appreciated!! You came highly recommended by many and now we completely understand why.

Cindy, Thanks, so much for all your hustle. You have been a pleasure to work with, in every way. Buying a large boat is a stressful process but your great communication made it so much less so. We will be sure to pass on the “good word” in working with you on the AGLCA forum […]

Thank you so much Cindy! You have made this whole process easy, enjoyable, and stress-free. You did a wonderful job! For sure let me know when you’re in the area as I live a golf cart ride away from the marina. Thank you so much again! Ready to hit the water.

Great job. Thanks for all your hard work and attention throughout the process.

Cindy, I meant to send you a picture of the boat in its new home on our lift and totally forgot! We got it home with no problems on Friday and have been working on it and cleaning it up in anticipation of next season! Thank you so much for all of your help along […]
