Put me on the bandwagon. I'd love to buy some hats, t-shirts, etc, etc. I know they have some of this stuff on their website, but at previously mentioned the selection just sucks. Here's hoping someone from Four Winns is "listening".

A brief check out of the logo and accessories website... they have lots of cool stuff...

What exactly are you guys wanting for clothing or accessories? If there's a particular item (or set of items) that everybody can agree on, I'd be happy to volunteer to do a bulk order or have something custom made?

I'd like to see a better selection of some of the things they do have, I guess.

Clothing I'm a plain T kind of guy, but they don't really have anything I want. Who wants to wear green or red in the middle of July when sitting on a mirror (large body of water) on a sunny day? I'd love it if they offered a white T, but they don't. I'm not much of a cold-weather boater, so some of the jackets don't really suit my needs. Plus, if I'm out on my boat I'm not wearing a golf shirt. I wouldn't wear most of that stuff away from the lake either. I actually like the visor, but some of this stuff just looks cheap to me. If I'm buying something with a FW logo on it, I want it to last more than a couple of summers. I'm not really the type to lose stuff overboard, but maybe that is who that stuff is aimed at. Just me, though.

I was hoping for more accessory type of stuff than clothing: flags, stickers, coozies, floating plastic cups (not the water bottle), stuff like that. If the towels came in blue or white, I'd be interested, but $29 for a freakin towel?

Check out the Sea Ray Wearables link on Sea Ray's site (link purposely omitted). They have such a large assortment of cool stuff that would keep everyone happy for years. I'd love to have 1/2 the stuff on this site.

I think FW just needs to contract with a different vendor that can add an expanded product selection.

robbo3, that is EXACTLY the kind of stuff I'm looking for. I wish we could get that type of lineup with FW stuff.

What better advertising than to have your customers PAY to promote your product. They would probably make a quick $10k profit just from the members of this forum.

This makes sense. Help keep the boat legal and look good at the same time.

It's all about developing a brand image, something Four Winns knows little about. They have a brand reputation, but not a brand image.

Holy cow!! Where have you guys been?? For the longest time I thought I was alone on this issue..... I'm glad to hear there are several others out there who think FW needs to advertise better and come up with better marketing accessories....

I just ordered two "Four Winns Dealer" clocks on Ebay. I am giving one to my dealer as a gift and keeping one for us.

Wait a second, you spend thousands of $$$'s, and you buy THEM a clock?

Well, I like giving stuff to people it makes me feel good.

Oh and for 20 bucks I will probably save time and money down the road for being a nice guy! It certainly can't hurt!

Better Luck is wise. Doing little things for your dealer once in awhile can pay big dividends.
