FunAir and National Marine Inflate the Fun and Support Breast Cancer Research with Promo Delivering In Stock Yacht Slides at FLIBS
AUSTIN, TEXAS (OCTOBER 15, 2014) – FunAir, the leader in premium sealed air inflatable yacht toys and National Marine Suppliers, the premier yacht supplier and logistical support group, announce they are jointly promoting the launch of a new, in-stock and ready-to-ship Adjustable Yacht Slide with a promotion that benefits breast cancer research. National Marine is the distributor for FunAir in North America and Europe, and together the companies are launching the new product at The Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (FLIBS), Oct. 29 – Nov. 2, 2014.
FunAir CEO, Eric Goldreyer said, "Our mission is to maximize the fun for yacht owners and their families and guests. In addition, we have decided to partner with our friends at National Marine to support breast cancer research with our newest product launch.” The companies will donate a portion of every sale of the new in-stock Adjustable Yacht Slide sold before FLIBS.
For each in stock Adjustable Yacht Slide ordered by October 27, FunAir will donate $200 to the Florida Breast Cancer Foundation. Yacht owners attending FLIBS can take delivery of their new Adjustable Yacht Slide on the last day of the show and save on shipping. National Marine Suppliers CEO, Dean Dutoit, said “National Marine is excited to work with our partner, FunAir, who has shown a commitment to bringing innovative solutions to yacht owners and captains, while also finding a way to support an important cause like breast cancer research.”
FunAir continues to lead the industry in designing exciting new custom yacht toys and the company responded to demand from some customers for quick ship yacht slides. “When our customers asked for a yacht slide they could receive in days rather than weeks or months, we listened,” said FunAir Co-Founder and CEO, Eric Goldreyer.
FunAir Co-Founder and Chief Architect of Fun, Mark Anastasia and his design team have created more than 200 custom inflatables for mega yachts across the world – more than all other companies combined. Anastasia drew on that experience to create a slide that accommodates many yachts and could be produced and warehoused for quick shipment. Designed to complement FunAir’s custom yacht inflatables offering, the Adjustable Yacht Slide provides another option for some yacht owners who prefer to have their slide delivered quickly, rather than have it custom made. “Because of production efficiencies we gained by manufacturing multiple slides at one time, we’re able to offer the Adjustable Yacht Slide at $6995. That’s about half what it usually costs a yacht owner for a custom designed inflatable slide,” Anastasia said.
The Adjustable Yacht Slide is designed to fit on yachts with deck railing heights of between 4M and 5.5M to the waterline. Like all FunAir sealed air inflatables, the Adjustable Yacht Slides are made with commercial-grade 0.9mm PVC materials with UV protection and are backed by a 3-year warranty.
