Msg Subject: Request for advice re new portable floating hot tub

Hi all:

After a rough cold trip back from Catalina to Long Beach  my sister  (30 ft. Catalina) and her boyfriend thought it would be great to have a hot tub for the boat. So they invented a portable floating hot tub for boaters.

Their website is www.tugtub.com.

My question is whether anyone has any advice on how to distribute or market the TugTub. Do you see any great markets for this thing? Other than West Marine and the other biggies we're talking to, any great dealers, boat suppliers, etc? Or do you think just direct sales is the way to go?

We took it to the MAATS convention in Las Vegas and it generated a lot of buzz, but we're still trying to figure out the best way to go re getting it out there.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Takes an hour to fill and heat to over 100 degrees. 

Well maybe in the evening this winter, but thats to hot for me in the summer...

Yeah, but think about it floating behind lebitch when you get home after a day like you said you had today.

And we could get one to work My kinks out after the two of you get done beating me up just for fun.

But with the temperature of the river right now all we have to do is get a big float and let terry and fatboy sit in it they will keep in bubbling and the river will keep it warm.
