New things at Magnum Boating, Inc. this year include jetski rentals, a different restaurant on site, and cleaned up look and style. We've worked hard this winter to get ready for a great season and we can't wait to serve you. We've added a new addition to our team here: Chuck Poss who will be a sales team member. Welcome, Chuck! Tim and I are proud to have him on board and sail(sell)ing! :) Also

The season flew by and it was a blessed year. Thank you to all the new customers and our loyal customers for years. We are ready to winterize your boat and hope to see you over the holidays. We've also brought in Mexico Viejo from Crazy Horse to take over the restaurant and open their second location. What a wonderful addition to the Magnum Boating family!

Everybody is coming in and GUESS what we now have ICE CREAM. Hand dipped and novelties like Bomb Pops, Fudge bars, and SO much more. I screamed, you screamed, we all screamed for ice cream and we've got it now!!!! Come out and get some Ice Cream.

I heard the birds for the first time really chirping today, and the little frost on the windows did nothing to deter the fact that finally spring is here. So many changes and so much to do that it is unfathomable how much we can do for you! The boat show kicked off our season in February and we were off to the races. Not to mention the newest addition to the Magnum Boating, Inc. family...

As you've seen, it's been a busy fall. We have had some rising water and our team worked hard with neighbors and our wonderful slip rental customers to keep their and our boats safe and moored correctly. Some new breaking news is that we are in the process of opening a restaurant at our marina. Geared toward families with reasonable pricing and an informal atmosphere, we want everyone to enjoy

Here come the open riders and they are awesome. Fifteen minutes of Fame is underway...the final showdown for riders before the BIG Boys get on the scene. Check out the video here.

If you come...come by water.....................If you aren't here, or coming, you are missing a cool event. These riders are cool and nice to work with. I mean it. They are just nice, friendly People packed lunch and Vierias is serving hamburgers for $5.00 and 2 hotdogs for $5. It's crazy. My dumb camera is still not charged and it's really bad. This place is packed. I'm going to get some

Here we go again!!! Once more, I'm seeing the crowds merge and riders appear. This time we have a bigger event and a larger crowd. Young riders taking the stand from 10-15 years old just out there shredding it! Magnum Boating and Blackwater Boating Company are present to support the riders. It's fun and crazy all at the same time. People everywhere--newspaper reporters and people starting to

Riding hot and fast were the two first riders. Amazing doesn't really cut it. FEARLESS is what I'd say. Maybe it's my age, but 12-15 ft. in the air and wide oppen is not my idea of fun, but it is my idea of really cool. Double up runs and devil back rolls seem to be the sayings of the day. They are a little far away, but hopefully you can see the video of some awesome moves. Here are some shots

Don't know what to expect! It's my first wakeboard contest. All ready and everybody is here and we are ready to start the day. Humidity up with the temperatures fosters an environment of just wanting to jump in the water. So far, few riders, but it's the first one and everybody is learning. What's so cool is to look around and see the riders and hear what they are saying. This crew is nice, and I

Can't believe April is gone and May is waving to us as she flits out of the calendar!!!!! We have been super blessed and busy, and I just haven't had the time to blog. Our Magnum family has been super busy with season startups, boat sales, and events all over our system. In fact, take a look at the events we have planned for the summer!Events: See below. The video here is from the 2009 Poker

I'm setting here watching the sunset and I'm just so moved to write. The whisps of clouds dance in a pink and blue ballroom in the sky reflected in the jewel of the south's beautiful green face. No greater Artist!!!!!! Finally, the weather has broken and we are nudging toward the 70's. WOOOO HOOO!!!! Today we met and were able to serve two very special people. They purchased a pre-owned boat from

Cold weather stops some boaters, but not this family that loves the Duke Blue Devils! We first met Team "O" on a warmer day as they looked at their "Blue Devil" Chaparral on the lot. Never fearing a cool day, their orientation took place in frozen weather with then dressed for their water sleigh ride! Welcome to the family, "Team O!" Just the other day "Team O" came in for some bumpers and other

Moving to Indian Pointe Marina in Hardy, VA Smith Mountain Lake has afforded us the opportunity to serve all our customers with more services and a full dealership/marina experience. From slip rentals, to the finest boat lines of Chaparral, Moomba/Supra, and JC Pontoon, to the 24 hour gas and 7 day a week technician, we have it all... for you!!!

It's almost spring and we are ready to serve you! Get your boat ready before Memorial Day and just shine, shine, shine. I think this economy gives all of us even more reason to be thankful for each other, our wonderful customers, our employees, our advisors, and all the people who work so hard to support us.

WOWWWWWWWWWW...not 3 inches, not 5 inches, but a WHOPPING 8 inches of snow for Franklin County? We still have snow on the ground, but it is melting bigtime finally. The boats are slowly coming back to the lake as all of the dealers got caught by Winter's angry white blanket. It wasn't enough that the snow was drifting, but the wind and the BITTER cold bit me all the way through. Yep, I've got the

OK...so I love a white Christmas and all the beauty of snow, but snow at the boat show? UNBELIEVABLE. All the school students are jumping wtih glee at the prospect of a closed school system, and to read that we might bet 3-5 inches????????????? Unbelievable. It was 60 on Wednesday, snowing on Sunday, and to read the forecast, it will be 50 on Thursday again. Woowwwwwweeeeee......Remember, CJ

It's busy and we have had so many of our customers come by to wish us luck and fall in love with the Double Ice Xtreme and the black, sleek World's Supra. What was super cool was the small worlds we all work in. Mr. Altieri... came by to wish us well and wanted me to be sure and blog about how "...great Tim is to deal with."

Kicking off the season in 2009 is the Roanoke Boat Show from today, February 27-March 1 at the Roanoke Civic Center. It's exciting and nerve wracking! There is so much to do and so many things to make sure you've done. The winter was cold but we made some new friends and we've tried to catch up on everything to be totally organized for the new season. While we've taken over the dock store, we

It was late in the afternoon and the sun had poked it's lazy head out when one of our wonderful customers came in. He shared a story with me that struck my heart. He was telling the story of how he got the perfect boat that he owns today. Here's Mr. K's story.... About a year ago, I called Tim and said, I want a yellow boat, SSI 22 ft. and I really want it to be in great shape and it must be a

We did move to Indian Pointe Marina and it's been great. We've sent out our fall newsletters and hope that all know where we are. Unfortunately, our phone number transfer ceased to work, but hopefully all know we are here, and the word is spreading. The marina is a great place and we are FINALLY ON THE WATER. Every customer has come into 2031 Morewood Road in Hardy, VA 24101 to wish us well and

While our customers poured in for the boat show, we didn't have the official word that we were moving. We'd been listening to our customers and how they wanted us to proceed, and we kept hearing that we needed to be on the water. We believe in our customers, and want to annouce that we are in the process of buying Indian Point Marina. Details to be posted very soon.

Can you believe it? Sunday's here and I'm worn out. I vacuumed this morning for the 40th time it feels like, and customers are blasting through the booth. I can't believe that 10:00 AM is here already and the wave has begun. Guess who came back today? The fine lady with the great questions. She decided to become a member of our boating family, and we welcome her. What a blessing that some

WINDY, but at least it's warm, and we haven't had a fire drill so far!!! We have so many potential customers that our excitement is growing as we move towards closing some deals.

Our booth was ready and we were winding down and getting out the door. Crunch, crunch, crunch, went the stapler as I stapled the last few business cards to our Xtreme brochures. Everything was finally ready. The culmination of weeks of work! From window sticker lamination, to vacuuming the carpet, all the touches must be perfect so that our booth would welcome our long time customers and invite

It's been a wild ride for the first six months here at MTB Magnum Boating Center. We've learned a great deal and we will continue to learn from our customers. We wanted to start this page to annouce special customer savings to our wonderful current customers and new customers.
