On Wednesday, July 18th at 6:12 p.m., Deltaville firefighters were dispatched and responded to a fire that was rapidly destroying the Deltaville Maritime Museum. The fire prompted an outpouring of support from other volunteer fire departments in neighboring counties. At least 65 firefighters were involved overall. As the situation stabilized, a salvage operation was started by scores of volunteers and firefighters at the scene. The blaze is the second major blow in a little more than a year for Deltaville, which suffered millions of dollars in damage when tornadoes and storms tore through the area in April 2011.

The excitement at Norton Yachts builds after learning about Mr. David Marlow, the principal owner of the purchasing entity of Hunter Marine. We will share more information as it comes, but what we know to date is that Mr. Marlow enthusiastically believes in boating as a recreation lifestyle. He has a keen focus on new boats and a 40 year history of successful boat building. David Marlow's hallmark is quality boat building. An end of the month closing is anticipated. Life does indeed begin at 40!

New Jeanneau SO 509 Arrives!
|
Holy cow, a very large load!
|
The new Jeanneau SO 509 arrived at Norton Yachts about a week ago and is now in our service building being commissioned. Due to the length of the mast, it had to arrive on a separate load. We'll keep you updated via Facebook during the make ready process.
