August 12, 2008 - Russo Marine was recently awarded the Richard T. Fisher award. This honor is bestowed annually to an outstanding Boston Whaler dealer for achieving and maintaining principles held dearly by company founder, Richard Fisher. These values include: exceeding customer expectations, delivering quality products and service, representing the brand creatively and innovatively, while achieving Boston Whaler Master Dealer status.
“Mr. Fisher was an engineering genius who changed modern boating forever. It is a true honor to be associated with his name through this award,” says General Manager, Larry Russo, Jr., who accepted this award. Russo Marine was acknowledged as the most worthy recipient among 150 Boston Whaler dealerships at their annual July dealer conference in Tampa, FL.
Richard T. “Dick” Fisher founded the Boston Whaler Boat Company in Rockland, MA in 1958, determined to build an indestructible, unsinkable boat. He introduced a 13 foot model with the unique Unibond construction and demonstrated its buoyancy by cutting the boat in half and watching it stay afloat. The “unsinkable legend” was born.
