Eddie Marine Cat

[SoCal_fun]

If Rex's display at the LA Boat Show counts for anything, he gets my vote!! Great looking products, friendly staff! Should have bought that steering wheel while I had the Wifes ok and the checkbook handy..
Dam IT!

You know, I am a fan of Eddie Marine, spend money there every off season. They have always been courteous and professional to me every time I go in there.
Same goes for Rex, although I dont spend nowhere near the time or money there, for no other reason than my boat came with Eddies hardware and I'm a brand loyal person.
But this thread is bullshit. Sounds like some petty self promotion to me.
Or, more likelyOriginally posted by NorCal Gameshow:
it sounds like someone is bored and trying to stir some shiznit at someone elses expense.
Either way it's bullshit and should be locked before it gets outta hand.

Hey I just got the new Eddie Marine catalog. It looks great. You know Ive called Rex Marine several times about getting one, and they are always telling me its still in production. Come on the last cat was done in 97. Im no expert on catalogs, but it doesnt take this long. Sounds like someone is just being lazy..
And the employees tell me to go on the internet to view a portion of the cat. Well I dont want to be rude, but that site needs help. Come on. You cant even order boat parts on line other than gauges.
It seems to me, that company doesnt have a clue about how to make money. The only thing they have going for them is that they have been around for years.
I think the Eddie one is awesome. They did a great job. Their site is awesome and I can order everything on line. WOW..
Eddie Marine seems to really know what they are doing when it come to catalogs.
It's been my experience that when a thread is started on one theme, then immediately takes off on a bash fest with the second sentence on a different theme, the original title of the thread wasn't really the intent or focus of the writer. The intent here wasn't to praise Eddie's catalog but was to bash me. Period. Mission accomplished.
It's also been my experience that if one doesn't want to be rude one generally just shuts up. For one to say they don't want to be rude, then immediately flop around and be rude... kinda makes one think they really did wanna be rude and are "lying" to justify the rudeness. Hmmmm. I have little respect for deliberate liars.
Eddie has a nice catalog. One thing we agree on.
Rex Marine doesn't yet have a finished catalog. Yes that's a problem. Rex Marine will have one soon. It's also old news on this forum. End of story.
The balance of assumptions, views I will not respond to. Can't make everyone happy and I have no illusions in that regard. That's just the way the world is.
Also I find that when one bashes, to have at least a shread of credibility, one should have identity and contact info in one's profile. Most internet tough guys don't seem to though...hmmm. Otherwise it's likely one is just on a shit stirring fishing expedition. Or negative ad campaign. I guess it is the political season.
If you feel the need to contact me please notice I have my contact information listed in plain view and don't hide behind a screen name.
Oh almost forgot. Welcome to the ***boat forums.

Very nice response Rex. I too hate guys that just get on the forums and there first post is a bash! Sit back and learn before you speak my newbie....

[Mohavekid]

Well said Rex.
I guess some people (25riverkid1971) can't/don't remember the adage "if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all".
I can't wait for summer.

Good response RexOne, shows class.
I like Rex and Eddie marine, Rex seems a little more custumer friendly at the counter though.
Did I mention the free sodas at Rex marine?

Mike, when do you think the catalog will be ready? haha.
Purchase your parts from SB Products at the Long Beach Swap Meet tommorrow at space 770.

One of these days I'll have the cash to shop out of the Rex catalog but until then it's JCWhitney all the way for me!
