Talkin' Tourism co-hosts Gary Guertin and Robin Hicks-Connors will certainly be on the move in the coming weeks. We decided to scrap the original concept for this week’s show (broadcasting from the House of Refuge on Hutchinson Island, Stuart, Florida) because Radio Man was offered an intriguing assignment - to help deliver a 26-foot Twin Vee Catamaran to a secret destination in Abaco, Bahamas.
You may ask, "What does this have to do with Treasure Coast tourism…and wasn’t Radio Man in Abaco just two weeks ago?" Well, ladies and gentleman, the ever-popular Twin Vee Catamaran is made right here on our very own Treasure Coast. Yes indeed, their plant is located in Fort Pierce. And this well-crafted boat is extremely popular in the islands. The more Twin Vees are ordered, the more Treasure Coast marine trades craftsman will be working - see, marine tourism does work to make a difference!
Accompanying Radio Man on this adventure will be Ben Martin, editor of the Florida’s most widely read fishing and boating publications, Coastal Angler Magazine.
Other guests that may appear on the show are still a mystery at this time. It's rumored, however, that world-renowned fishing guide Thatch McGuire may be in the house. Knowing Gary and the cast of characters living and playing in Marsh Harbour, he will not be at a loss for a couple more guests. Who knows, Radio Man may just run into some Treasure Coasters along the way.
Hopefully, History Lady will be able to make the phone connection to the radio station and have a part in the show. She's helping make some great things happen at the Elliott Museum.
So loyal listeners, you know the drill - Friday at 10 a.m. on WPSL 1590 AM, or www.wpsl.com! And don't forget to "Like" us on Facebook!
