Thanks for sharing John – what a great story.   

  I would be more than happy to share my story about the pins I’ve been ordering from you for the last three years.

     In 2004 I purchase my first boat from Steve, a friend of mine.  I’ve always wanted a boat to travel and visit the various marinas and summer hot spots all along the south and north shores of Long Island.  I think my love to travel by water to distant places never left me when I left the Navy.  Seems that thrill never left my cousin and brother in-law either.  We’ve even take my little boat across Long Island Sound and docked over night in New London Connecticut. All of our adventures were memorable and deserving of recognition.  This is where Stock Pins has come through for me every time.

   In 2005 we had our first Pin Ceremony.  I presented double and single dolphin pins as Officer pins to my cousin, brother in-law and other crew members. I also awarded everyone, who was on board, with a specific pin for each port they visited with us.  2005 was also the year when my cousin Richie, my brother in-law Gene and I crossed the LI Sound to Connecticut.  Our wives said we were jackasses for attempting this and so at our second annual Pin Ceremony we were awarded Stock Pin’s Golden Donkey pin. 

 

     Tonight we will be hold our 3rd annual Pin Ceremony and I will be honoring my crew and their wives and friends with various pins for they accomplishments and contributions to making our boating experiences memorable.  I can’t think of a better way to commence a boating season than having a Pin Ceremony and I can’t think of a better solution for my pin needs than Stock Pin.  There isn’t a trip we take where I don’t hear someone say ”Do I get a pin for this”?  Your product is more than a pin, it’s conversation piece and behind every pin there’s a story,,,, a Sea Story 

Thank you,
