Supra's All New Wake Wraps







MARYVILLE, TN (March 26, 2009) ~ Supra presents the latest in Wake Wrap design with their all new Exclusive Collection by Nick West Designs and ZDecals. The stunning designs from this exclusive Collection can be used on any Supra Model. Buyers can tweak the color choices and wrap size to suit their personal preference or they can create their own individualized custom Wake Wrap. The possibilities are endless thanks to Supra’s new partnership with ZDecals. In addition, the all new collection offers buyers the opportunity to add custom boat numbers to match the wrap they choose.

Supra’s killer new Wake Wraps Collection not only features the latest design trends available, but you can also expect the wrap to last at least 8+ years outdoors. Our partner ZDecals uses only the best materials from 3M coupled with 3M protective UV laminations and 3M approved inks.

See these designs for yourself at https://rcpt.yousendit.com/668220579/5f08dd45ca509f34210f801a7585dc85. Tell us what you think. A Supra Launch 22SSV owner just sent in a photograph of his new wrap from the Collection. The customer altered the colors on the design called “VCA”, to match his interior color choices. The tweaked design turned out to be an exquisite change that really compliments the boats style lines and interior color pattern.

ABOUT ZDECALS
Hmm...A little about who we are? Well, one thing is for sure, we love what we do. We don’t aim for perfection, we aim a little higher. Not sure what that would be called, but hopefully you get it. We only expect perfection from each other day in and day out. From the fresh designs from our designers, the vibrant colors that roll off our printers, to the over the top graphic installations, our customers should have no doubt that they’re dealing with the best. Now we have to be honest, the reason we go nuts on quality is we really don’t want to see your wrap back in our shop and we like it when you spread the good word. We’d rather see you catching some big air on the weekends and doing a little bragging here and there. We’re here to do one thing... create cool stuff and hear people say “how did you do that?!?” If you’re looking for something different and a team you can trust, you’ve found us.

NMMA Action Alert: Tell Congress/Treasury To Support Marine Floorplan Financing

Date: 3/6/09
Author: NMMA Press Release

On March 3, 2009, the U.S. Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York released new details on a consumer and business lending initiative known as the Term Asset-Backed Securities Lending Facility (TALF).

TALF is designed to reignite securitization markets by providing financing to investors to support their purchases of certain AAA-rated asset-backed securities (ABS).

In the first round of the TALF program, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York will lend up to $200 billion to eligible owners of certain AAA-rated ABS-backed eligible securities for auto loans, credit card loans, student loans and SBA-guaranteed small business loans. At this stage, TALF will also apply to AAA-rated auto dealer floorplan loans.

The Federal Reserve Bank of New York and U.S. Treasury have indicated additional items will be available for a second round of funding. They are actively considering, among other things, AAA-rated asset-backed securities (ABS) backed by non-auto floorplan loans.

We MUST URGE Members of Congress, the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York to include marine floorplan financing loans backed by ABS into TALF.

This would:

  • Provide important new liquidity to this credit market
  • Help relieve the mounting pressure on marine retailers and dealers

Failure to include marine dealer/floorplan loans, and any consumer credit assistance for the marine industry, in TALF would be inequitable and worsen an increasingly fragile financial market required for basic business operation in the U.S. marine sector.

Click here to easily contact your Members of Congress, the Treasury Department, and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York to urge the inclusion of marine floorplan loans into TALF.

Please let Mat Dunn, NMMA's Legislative Director, know if you have contacted any of these individuals, so NMMA can reinforce your messages: (202) 737-9760, mdunn@nmma.org.

WSBD Spring Update!


Well, guys, spring is just around the corner (March 20th to be exact!) and the weather is already considerably warmer! With higher temperatures in the forecast, the lakes will continue to heat up, and with the spring rains coming, water levels should be returning to normal.

Speaking of warmer weather, many of you have decided that winter is over and have brought your boat in for its summarization. Service is steady right now, but not backed up, so if you are ready, now is the time to start thinking about getting your boat up and running for the summer! As always, our Service Department is going to do its annual 100 Hour/Yearly Service with Free Summarization Special. The spring is the best time of year to get your 100 Hour/Yearly Service taken care of. The 100 Hour/Yearly Service takes care of everything serviceable on your boat, from top to bottom. All of your fluids are changed, a new impeller is installed, the rope packing is serviced, the trailer is maintained and your electrical system is double checked. Once the service is completed, you will not have to worry about anything else for another 50 engine hours, at which time you need to perform a routine oil change. The 100 Hour/Yearly Service is highly recommended to prolong the life of your boat, and with the peace of mind that it will provide you throughout the season, the Service is the best insurance policy you can buy! Call us at 972.221.3705 to schedule your appointment!

The Launch Pad, the Waterski Boats Dallas Pro Shop, has recovered and restocked from the Boat Show! Thank you so much for helping us have another record setting Boat Show in our Pro Shop! To reward you for that, just print out this letter and bring it in for an additional 15% off of as many 2009 items as you can fit into your cart! This includes anything from boards and bindings to board shorts, hats and tees! Speaking of which, Fox has reloaded the Launch Pad with the latest selection of Men’s and Women’s Board Shorts! You have to start the season off with a new pair of boardies! Wearing old shorts in a new season is a crime!

As of today, Waterski Boats Dallas has become an official dealer for Hart and Huntington! If you are one of those complete Fox junkies, then you will love the Hart and Huntington stuff! Although we won’t be providing the Tattoos, we will be providing Cary Hart’s Clothing Line! Check it out at http://www.hartandhuntingtontattoo.com/! Spring goods are available now and summer stuff will be available soon!

Boat sales have been good this year as well! Although the boat show incentives are gone from Supra and Moomba, Waterski Boats Dallas has started their Grand Opening Incentives by offering a “Pay No Sales Tax on any 2009 Supra and Moomba in Stock!” That’s right! You can now skip that 6.25% fee that is tacked onto the sale price of a boat in the State of Texas! This could mean up to a $6,000 savings on a brand new 2009 Supra or Moomba! This special will run thru Tax Day, Wednesday, April 15th, 2009 (ironic, isn’t it?).

While we are on the subject of April, Waterski Boats Dallas is looking to host their Grand Opening on Saturday the 18th. Much more info is coming about this, so stay tuned!

If you haven’t visited our blog lately (located at http://waterskiboatsdallas.blogspot.com/), you may have missed quite a bit! First of all, the 2009 WWA Wakeboard World Championships will return to Orlando in August! The qualifier for Worlds (Nationals) will be held in Oklahoma City this year, at the 2008 Worlds Site! In case you didn’t know, Supra is the official towboat of the WWA Wakeboard Worlds, and we have all been waiting patiently to find out when and where Worlds would be officially held this year.

Incase you missed the boat show, we did a live wrap install on a 2009 Moomba Mobius XLV. There are pictures from the boat show and from the live wrapping on the blog. We have also posted a video of a 2009 Supra Launch 24SSV BROstock Edition Wrap being installed! So if you have ever wondered how in the world it’s done, now you can see it first hand! And speaking of First Hand, there is a link on the blog to the recently aired “Chad Sharpe’s First Hand” which was broadcasted on Fuel TV. The entire episode is now available on-line for your viewing pleasure!

We will be launching more features to our http://www.waterskiboatsdallas.com/ website as well! Currently, you may view all of our Supra, Moomba, Voyager and Pre-Owned Inventory. Up-coming events and specials are featured as well! However, a new addition will soon be added which will be called “WSBD Networking”. This is a chance for you to share with us what you do for a living and what you may provide to others. We have customers in almost every field out there, so we got to thinking, “why not let our customers share their skills with each other”. It is always more comfortable doing business with someone that you have a common interest with. Soon, you will be able to browse thru a list of products and services that our customers are involved with so that you may have a starting point incase there is something that you may need. For example, you may need to get a new fence for your back yard. Let http://www.waterskiboatsdallas.com/ be your first stop and look to see if any of our customers build fences. It is a great place to start, and you already have a common interest with that person since you are both customers of Waterski Boats Dallas. It sure beats flipping thru the yellow pages or doing an on-line search and calling up a stranger. If you are interested in being a part of the Waterski Boats Dallas Network, just let me know and I will get a form out to you to fill out so we can post the information you provide to us on our Networking Page.

We look forward to working with all of you this season! Like I said, with the season coming so fast, we will be complaining about the heat before we know it!

If you would like to be removed from our e-mail list, please reply to this e-mail with “remove” in the body. If you like what you just read or know someone that may be interested, please forward it on to your friends and family!
