Greetings!
We want to thank you for another great year. This will wrap up our 45th year serving sailors. As we reflect on the past year, it is important to let you know how much we appreciate your support. We have been privileged to serve sailors from Iceland to Australia and Saudi Arabia to our home port in Muskegon, Michigan, USA. As we move into 2009 we look forward to serving you again. Please don't hesitate to contact us if there is anything we can do to help you as you keep sailing along.
For our customers around the Great Lakes, we look forward to seeing you in our store this winter. There is no better way to beat the winter blues than to explore new boats in our indoor showroom and browse our shelves of interesting sailing products in our large ships store.
As always, we look forward to your comments and suggestions. We are also interested in what topics you would like to see. Email the Torresen Sailing Newsletter to let us know what you think. |
