YOU ARE CORDIALLY INVITED
TO JOIN ME ON A
PERSONALLY GUIDED TOUR
OF THE CATALINA, ISLAND PACKET AND HUNTER FACTORIES

 

Whether you are ready to buy now or in the next few years, I encourage you to invest the time to visit any or all three factories with me.  As a former executive with several large sailboat manufactures, you may find my knowledge helpful in not only better understanding the boat building process, but also helping you make better personal evaluation of various yacht manufactures.

 

Island Packet and Catalina are conveniently located only 15 to 20 minutes from the Tampa International Airport. I can usually make arrangements for a tour with 24 hour notice

At the factory you will see first-hand how a yacht evolves from rolls of fiberglass and drums of resins through the various stages of production to a completed yacht. It is an amazing process accomplished by teams of dedicated craftspeople. If you have the time to visit the Island Packet, Hunter and Catalina, you will notice many differences in their construction techniques, yet they are both very similar boats in quality. You will certainly gain a vast amount of knowledge during the tour to help you make a more informed decision on your next boat.

 
The Island Packet and Catalina factories are located only 15 minutes from my office in St Petersburg and conveniently located only 20 minutes from the Tampa Airport.  The Hunter factory is located outside of Gainsville, Florida about two hours from the Tampa Airport.

If you don’t have the time to personally take the tour, I have a DVD of the Hunter factory and a brochure explaining Catalina’s process.
Contact me and let me know if you’d like to schedule a tour or if I can send you additional information.

Fair winds,
Joe Zammataro
