All wraps cut from boats at SAYC and neighboring marinas enter a special dumpster for collection, to be recycled as opposed to being disposed of with regular waste destined for an incinerator or landfill. “We are very lucky and grateful to have Bluewater as a tenant and partner.” Remy Anderson, South Annapolis Yacht Centre Anderson adds, “They definitely have a strong community involvement and have really established their brand throughout the Bay area.” As Finance Manager for all Bluewater locations, Sohovich oversees hundreds of transactions throughout the year but only gets a chance to meet a portion of those buyers in person. Knowing just how exciting it is to take delivery of a boat, she has helped organize many Boat Closing Parties that include champagne, both for consumption and for christening of new boats, along with catered food, gifts and Bluewater swag. When one customer expressed their fondness of a Dark n’ Stormy, a cocktail composed of Gosling’s Rum and ginger beer, Sohovich went out of her way to bake Dark n’ Stormy cupcakes to be served with Dark n’ Stormy refreshments at his Closing Party. “These are all little ways of hugging the customer,” she explains. “We really enjoy spreading the family feeling that comes with the Bluewater Experience.” Mr. & Mrs. Claus pose in front of their sleigh 47 2022 SEASON
