Festive cheer is here.   Please accept this updated News Update with the correct links to the the Charles D Strang story.

This year, like last has had its ups and downs for many of us.   Whilst business in our sector is 'booming', other factors have made our lives at times somewhat challenging.   A possible resurgence of C19 through the Omicron variant, border insecurities and supply chain issues will mean that our return to normal is still some time away.

That said, our resilience and industry smarts are to be admired, so with some patience and tolerance, the recreational marine industry will nurture this Covid boom into benefits for our industry for many years.

Marine Business News, whose origins date back to 1989 only re-launched 9 weeks ago.  2021 allowed our team to repackage the product as a digital offering and the many many months of planning have paid off.   We thank you, the industry, for your positive feedback and support.   We plan to continue to deliver the finest and latest news to you into the future.   

Being Christmas Eve, we have decided not to distribute our traditional Friday News Update. 

Today we are launching part one of a four-part series penned by the idiosyncratic Danny Casey. Called “OUR HISTORY: The Risk Takers – Charles D. Strang”.  The other parts will be published in months to come. 

For now, from our family to yours, we wish you, your family and your work colleagues a Merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous 2022.

Marine Business News will not be closing down over the Christmas period.  Please keep visiting our news page   www.marinebusinessnews.com.au to get the latest news.

We would love to hear from you. Please send your media releases, comments and feedback to newsroom@marinebusinessnews.com.au

Best wishes,

Domenic, Daniella & the team at      Marine Business News
