Sanger Boats signs
multi-year agreement with World Barefoot Council
Below is a
statement received from Sanger Boats:
Sanger Boats is proud to announce an exclusive agreement signed with the
WBC to that states that should the Sanger be the exclusive tow boat
of any of the next three World Barefoot
Championships, we will sponsor the events with funds
that are directly proportional to new boat sales made during the year(s)
leading up to the Worlds. This new exclusive agreement will help to promote both
barefoot skiing all over the world,
and our product as a 25 year veteran of building high quality barefoot
boats. This agreement will include the DXII, DLX,V210 and Outboard
Barefoot skier. In light of this new agreement, Sanger Boats has begun
to produce a limited amount of new Sanger Barefooter Outboard models,
made popular all through the 80's and 90's. I would like to see our
sport experience growth as the marine industry rebounds from the current
economic downturn. I believe having a boat that skiers can count on for
consistent outstanding performance will help accomplish this goal.
Scott Pellaton Sales Director, Sanger Boats
The agreement states that Sanger will set aside
funds (as much as $1000 per boat sold), on boats sold through either
Sanger boats Promo programs or through BarefootCentral.com. The amount
sponsored is directly proportional to the total number of barefoot boats
sold. Sanger is offering this program through several
different boat models, which include: DXII, DLX, V210, and the Sanger
Outboard.
NOTE: This agreement does NOT state that the local
organizing committee of the Worlds is required to use Sanger boats.
What it does state is that should the LOC choose to use Sanger boats,
they are guaranteed additional supprt that is proportional to the number
of barefoot boats Sanger sells leading up to each Worlds. If the
LOC chooses not to use Sanger boats, the funds will continue to roll
over until the next Worlds.
We'd like to thank Sanger and the members of the
World Barefoot Council for making this program a reality. For more
