Now hear this! "Building one of a kind, one at a time," is the Dragonfly Boatworks motto. Continuing along that line, they've just added a "one of a kind" sales manager, Jimbo Meador, to the staff of the Vero Beach, FL, boat-building company. "Jimbo is unique," said Mark Castlow, Dragonfly Boatworks owner. "And I challenge anyone to refute that," he laughingly added. "Jimbo is multi-talented: skilled in hunting, birding, angling and boating." Meador's extensive sales pedigree includes the successful marketing of products from distinguished companies...Orvis, Beretta, Hell's Bay, among others. "Jimbo and I have worked on many ventures in our twenty-five year friendship and having him join the company is like welcoming a brother back home. A brother you really like, that is," Castlow said. "He knows the outdoors and the outdoors knows him. I can't think of a better person to represent our products." Dragonfly Boatworks is a young company with lots of "old" experience. The company prides itself on skiffs and kayaks brought about from a lifetime of boat building and designing combined with an individual boat owner's specifications. Result: a personalized, streamlined, shallow water craft. |
