So seeing those big companies come in, it's like, do they know what they're doing or they're just gonna throw, throw a couple Bayliners in each fleet at 100 different marinas and call it a day or something like that? So I h- think that's a huge factor is competing with the big guys that are in the space and gonna buy all the marinas out, and then they're not gonna offer a contract to, to me to do a little club with five boats and test it out.
Chris RozzoGUEST
