Crazy Week

This week we are down one man. Mike, Co-Owner, threw his owner card on the table and went to visit family in Florida for a week! That has left Doug to run the shop and Pete to assist. While Mike has been kicking it on the beach and swimming in the pool, the shop has been in full swing. Between shipping and customer support, there was barely enough time to take a boat to the landfill, buy a fishing boat, and haul another boat to Barrington.

One man down really throws things off balance a little, but we all need to get away sometimes.

See ya when ya get back Boss Hog!

Trailer Racing

Our trailer racing buddy, Trailer Racin' Matt, placed 3rd in the Kar Korner’s World Famous Trailer Race. The race was this past weekend at the Rockford Speedway. We painted the boat up REAL nice for him this time! If you have not seen a trailer race, you gotta catch one some time. It is a demo race and the last car around the track with a 'trailer' still in tow WINS!

Corporate Cruiser in Repair

The BK Cruiser came out of the water yesterday at Lighthouse Marina in Fox Lake, IL. There was a shifting issue that was pinpointed to the outdrive. Today, the outdrive will be dropped and inspected. A replacement with likely be installed. Luckly, we have those parts on hand! If you need parts for your boat, call us at 815-363-1254.

Bk Boat n Sleds took it to the water this Memorial Day. The 1977 Apollo turned into a floating office Monday. It was the perfect day out on Fox Lake too. It was overcast and breezy, but the internet was free and you can't beat the view!

Corprate Cruiser is Lettered and Back in the Water

The Bk Boat n Sleds Corporate Cruiser is back in the water after hanging from the hoist at Rustic Harbor. Sign Appeal in Fox Lake IL supplied the lettering for the 25 foot Apollo. We did the install and as it was hanging it was already getting looks from passing boaters. This is gonna be a great summer out on the water.

Junk Boats Are Rolling in

Looks like we are going to have another week packed with junk boats. There is one scheduled to arrive today, another one tomorrow, and then another buzzing around in the mix. We are working on lining up another Marina to work with. That should secure a hand full of boats.
