In his 38 years as a full-time boat technician, Dave has fixed, maintained, rebuilt, assembled, prepped and otherwise wrenched on about 10,000 boats and motors! Dave's various factory certifications could wallpaper a warehouse-if he was inclined to show off-which he is not. He is computer savvy which makes him a tremendous modern technician in the digital control era.
Dave is a fixture on the Helena golf links and keeps a smile on his face even when busting knuckles on old rusty boat parts.

For 37 years Ron has cast his line in the boating industry. After graduate school, Ron spent 8 years as a full-time tournament walleye angler and authored three books and a couple hundred articles about fishing and boating-none of which the fish bothered to read. He owned and operated a fishing and boating marketing company for more than 30 years and then served as regional marketing manager for the Western United States and Western Canada, most notably representing Crestliner Boats for a decade.
Ron is a self-described "boat geek" who typically gets on the water more than 75 times a year including annual trips to the coast for crabbing and salmon fishing. Ron is on contract with several fishing industry companies to provide internet and blog content. He authors a blog on the High Country Boats website too--under the Fishing Blog tab.
