Welcome Aboard Program Looking for Volunteers who love boating!


A welcoming program for new boaters in your community, Boat Nut latest program is to introduce new boaters to your region. Boat Nut will provide a welcome package from your city with details of events and places to go. Volunteers (CR) will complete a visit to the new boaters slip introducing themselves welcoming the new boater with gifts and promotional material so that new boaters become a part of your power boat community. Offering Boat Nut and the Welcome Aboard sponsors as a resource for their boating experience. Visiting boaters can call in and receive a dock side visit by one of our CR's. We want all boaters to feel at home and recognize our sense of the local power boat community.

Welcome Aboard program will start with a received email from the new boater with a request for a visit, a visit to their boat is necessary as we need to confirm that the client actually owns the boat. All visits will be scheduled with the CR, the CR will introduce themselves and proceed with welcoming the boater to the local power boat community. The community representative will be able to answer questions about local events and destinations. The CR will also field any questions that the client may have regarding the areas power boat owners popular spots, such as restaurants, bars, grocery stores or other local locations. If there are questions that the CR cannot answer they will be able to download the questions to Boat Nut and we will Email the client the answers that they require.

The power boat community is a very social community with people from different walks of life having an opportunity to meet over a similar interest. Boat Nut wants all new boaters to feel that they are immediately part of a community where they can enjoy the lifestyle that goes along with a boat purchase. If we continue to nurture and develop our boating community we all benefit. All new boaters and transient boaters in our community should not have to feel any frustration with finding out where to go for local supplies and services. Boating areas are passed over due to the fact that it is unclear as to where to find local supplies, services and mooring facilities. The feed back from this type of program can be forwarded to local boating support business and services so they can improve access to boaters. When accessible services and supplies are available we all benefit.

All of the CR representatives will receive free benefits from Boat Nut and will be invited every year to our Industry Partner end of year meeting, complete with all the benefits that this meeting provides (this benefit information is only provided to our CR volunteers). This is as a thank you for your involvement in this program, these include huge discounts and free products. For volunteer information please contact Boat Nut Media @ boatnutmedia@gmail.com and become an active boat nut! We hope to watch this program build support and flourish.
