Lowdown on a new tube/pontube - EvilAsh - 01-24-2006
Here's a picture of the new Venture Outdoor Products Echo Perma. From what I understand it is a hard side 'toon. Retails for $249 Haven't come out yet, but are in production. I don't know exactly what the 'toon composition is, but it's a hard plastic. If it's like mine, the dimensions are 4' toons, kickboat type seat, and I'm sure the padded version is available. They're not on the Venture website yet.

[cool][#0000ff]Veddy intermesting. Would like to see the specs when it gets closer to being "on line". Looks like simplicity in all respects.[/#0000ff]

Might not have to wait too long. I understand that Wal Mart is going to carry them.

[cool][#0000ff]As I suggested to EA in a PM, I hope Carol is careful in her contract with Wally World. They have literally helped "tube" a lot of small companies by the way they do business with their vendors.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]For her sake, I hope it works out to her benefit. Can't ask for more visibility than hooking up with the big boys.[/#0000ff]

I agree with all the stuff in the news (like everyday). She was originally going to put them in Sam's club (same thing) so I was a little suprised to se she got the stores. She is sharp, hopefully they woun't be in tomorrows news[crazy]

[cool][#0000ff]None of us likes to see a small business fail. Especially if it is fishing related and even more if it is a local business. I won't make any sexist comments about women in business.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]All I can say is if women were as sharp as they think they are in business, they would own the remaining 10% of the country's assets. (joke)[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Seriously, I hope, for her sake, that the line takes off and that she gets paid in full and on time so that she can continue to grow.[/#0000ff]
