Follow on Google News | Latitude Industries Announces Closing of www.championmarineusa.com Has Been CompletedLatitude Industries, Inc.,a holding company that exists to bring together a conglomerate of companies dedicated to the pursuit of fun and adventure in the outdoors, announced that the acquisition of www.championmarineusa.com has been completed.
By: Latitude Industries Carolina Hernandez, CEO of Latitude Industries, Inc., said, "We are glad this acquisition is complete and we are now currently seeking other acquisition candidates in the marine and transportation industries. We are also looking to put more products for sale on www.championmarineusa.com website. We are also in the process of creating an internet marketing program to access potential clients to make them aware that this company is available to fulfill any outdoorsman needs." As this acquisition was finalizing, The Recreational Boating & Fishing Federation (RBFF) released a new research this week that said it will help the boating industry better understand consumer attitudes toward boat purchases. The RBFF's Quantitative Study of Consumer Attitudes, which was announced at IBEX, shows the boating lifestyle is robust, but buying habits have shifted, according to a statement from the group. "People are going to continue to buy boats, but more cautiously without applying for as much financing," said RBFF President and CEO Frank Peterson. "We hope our boating stakeholders will use this research to help develop their marketing strategies for the coming year." The Boating Lifestyle -- Despite the economic downturn, nearly half of all consumers claim they are still in the market for a boat in the next three years. -- Consumers as a whole are not moving away from boating, but rather are more likely to try and find ways to make boating less costly. For example, they plan on doing more repairs themselves or plan to spend less on accessories for their boat. -- Three in 10 consumers are considering purchasing a pre-owned boat. -- The main reason why current boat owners are not in the market for a boat (new or used) is that 66 percent are simply satisfied with their current boat. The study was conducted by RBFF and BrandSpark International in June 2010 and provides detailed information on 1,885 boat owners and 977 non-boat owners ages 18 to 69. The methodology and full study is available online at RBFF.org. www.championmarineusa.com is an online store that offers more than 19,000 boat part, accessory and cloth to anglers all over the world, specializing in fast domestic and international shipment to satisfy the most discriminating boaters.
