Visit to Plant

[Butch Landreneau]

Last week, on way to south Florida, stopped and got tour of plant. Was interesting. Alittle quick too. Took about 25 minutes. However, probably saw everything that could see. When asked tour guide about relationship between Cherubini and Hunter, he said never heard of Cherubini. Asked another guy, and same reply. Both these guys said they were with Hunter for over 15 years. Is there bad blood between the two or these guys just not up on Hunter History?Only complaint was couldn't see any of the finished models. Seems most local dealers only have 320 and 340's on hand...wanted to see 380. But said couldn't see any there at plant.

Plant Visit -??

Why such a short tour ? Is is a small plant ?I too would like to stop by, visit and possibily talk to a rigger and/or a designer.Do you think this would be possible ??Was there ever an offer made by your guide to extend your visit ??Bob Dean

I can understand that.

Butch:I can understand that they may not know or heard of the Cherubini name. I owned one of these boats for several years and had never heard about one of the designers. If this person had only been with Hunter for 15 years (approx 1986) Hunter was well beyond the Cherubini era.Now if you speak with some of the people in the customer service area that is be a different issue. There is probably more talk about "Cherubini" on this site than any other place in the world except at the Cherubini dinner table that is!
