"I will always look back on the Painless Private which PRO put together for me, my family, and friends as one of the peaks of my life. You are clearly heads and shoulders above the others in your field. We lacked for nothing in equipment, supplies and service.  As a professional boat operator with experience in many craft, I was especially delighted with the design and condition of your boats."

Bill Beer, 1995
