2018 Spring Boat Show Season
|
|
The Spring 2018 Boat Shows are well underway and have been great thus far. We started the year in Baltimore, MD for the Out-of-water boat show, and have been rocking since.
The Corporate Team sailed into Miami, FL for the International Show while our North East Sales Manager, Mary Ann froze in Boston for the New England Boat Show.
Spring came early for our California Sales Manager Peggy, as she attended the Newport Beach Boat Show. Unlike our California Rep our Maryland team suffered through cold, windy, and rainy weather for the Annapolis Spring Sailboat Show. The unfavorable weather continued through to the Bay Bridge Boat Show, but we made the best of it and had a blast.
We all met with many brokers and customers alike, all excited for this year's boating season. It was a great time catching up with old friends, meeting new friends, and doing business along the way.
If we missed you, please reach out soon as we are continuing to offer promotions through July 1, 2018.
Don't miss out, call today for additional details!

Matt's Experience at the 2018 American Boating Congress
|
This was one of the most eye-opening, educational experiences I have had in my time at Sterling Acceptance. For those that have never heard of the American Boating Congress (ABC for short) you are in for a treat. The ABC is a yearly event which brings marine industry leaders and law makers together to influence change in the policy that affects the Recreational Boating Community. Around 250 industry leaders attend the event which takes place over three days in May in our Nation’s Capital. This years’ discussions were vast and ranged from global and domestic tariffs (aluminum and steel specifically), to modern fishing to workforce development for our industry.
|
Over a dozen high profile speakers attended and spoke at the event.
Some of those included: Scott Pruitt, Administrator of the U.S. Environment Protection Agency, Ryan Zinke, U.S. Secretary of the Interior, Admiral Tim Gallaudet of NOAA, USCG Captain Jennifer Williams and Key note speaker Chris Wallace.
Sitting in a room with some of the most influential members of our industry was truly inspiring. As well, to be rubbing elbows with the law makers of our country was intimidating, but extremely informative. As an industry we came together and lobbied U.S. Congress to help pass laws that will be beneficial to all members of the recreational community. I hope to attend the event again next year with hopes that this years’ event created the change we as a community want to see.

Message from Our President
|
Friends, Dealers and Clients:
We are truly grateful to you for putting your trust in Sterling Acceptance. As we begin to celebrate our 31st Year, it appears the economy is showing some strong growth, interest rates are still very attractive and lenders are eager to put Marine/RV loans in their portfolio. The credit granting criteria remains fairly liberal and values are consistently strong.
We are seeing some what of a late opening of the boating season perhaps due to the cold wet weather that has crossed the Great Lakes, Northeast and Mid Atlantic. June is looking to be a record month. Sterling has added some new personnel whom are ready to serve your Boat/ RV needs. Please let us know if we can help make your dreams a reality!! Call Today
(800-525-0554) for the LOWEST RATES in the industry.
Best Always,
Karen

Meet Ryan Lumsden,
Our Summer Intern
|
Ryan was born and raised in Southern Maryland. Spending lots of time on the water, both at his grandparents’ house in Heathsville, VA and on St. Leonard’s Creek in Calvert County, MD. After graduation Ryan spent the summers detailing boats, so he knows just how much people love and want to take care of their boats. Ryan is pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration with a concentration in Information Technology and a minor in Accounting at North Carolina State University. Ryan's goal is to learn as much as he can about the Boating/RV lending world, eventually pursuing a career in the finance industry.
