Belk’s Marine

January 26th, 2010 | Comments Off | Posted in 123 Triad

A dying breed of business, the Family Owned Business, has stayed alive through three generations of Belks. The founder, Thomas Belk Sr., started the business from his home on Amosland Road in Holmes in 1953. After one year, the business had grown enough to need a larger site. Moving to the now current site. His two sons, Thomas Belk Jr. and Richard Belk joined Tom in the business. As the business has grown, so has the store adding on five more times to the back of the building doubling the original space of the store. Belks known as “The Big Store with the Little Front.” The present and third generation (Judy Belk, daughter of Tom Belk, Jr.) has taken the helm and re-modeled each addition bringing it into the 21st Century. The boating bug caught her and she started working in the store along side her father while in high school After high school she started working full time learning the different aspects of the business.

Later becoming Parts and Accessories Manager, following the death of her Uncle Dick and her father wanting to retire, she decided to keep the family business in the family. So in January 1997 the business was sold to Judy. The lines of boats that they have handled over the years have changed but they have tried to accommodate both the fisherman and the family. Their aluminum boats made by Lund offer almost everything a fishermans heart desires. Lund offers something for the first time buyer as well as the experienced tournament fisherman. Their fiberglass line made by Caravelle offers fishing, fun and performance. All the family from the very young to the senior citizen can participate. Mercury and Mercruiser sales have been the main stay in this business since day one.

Dulmison Marine

January 3rd, 2010 | Comments Off | Posted in 123 Triad

Dulmison Marine released the Flook at the 1989 Sydney Boat show. It was developed by Phil Dulhunty from his experience with seaplanes and the desire to carry on board a lightweight “FLYING HOOK” = FLOOK. (Pronounced as in hook, book, cook). After many prototypes and the development of the offset flukes with a four-bar linkage, the anchor was designed for optimum glide angle of 18 degrees. The weight at the front drives the anchor forward, the trailing tips are pointed down to ensure nose down attitude and they aid in the anchor digging in to sand and mud. The dihedral of the wings ensures maximum glide, true direction and the large surface area of the wings prove a good holding area.

When launched into the water from a boat it automatically takes off and flies out through the water at a glide angle of 5 to 1 until it lands on the seabed. A trail of bubbles indicates its flight path and its final resting place. A quick reward jerk on the line opens its unique differential pantograph and drives the flukes into the sand or mud. The special geometry provided by the opening pantograph ensures that the harder you pull, the deeper the flukes dig down into the bottom.

PowerCat Marine Australia

Wherever possible, each boat is personally delivered and information is provided to the customer on all aspects of the boat, including drive techniques, performance, handling and just how to enjoy the boat to its full potential. Powercats are one of the original and best renowned cats manufactured in Australia, and are known for their sleek looks and high performance. They come in a luxury finish wih many standard inclusions, so that all you have to do is turn the key and go! The smoothness and dryness of their ride, particularly in rough seas has to be experienced to be believed…Why? The thin narrow twin hulls slice through the water; whereas the broader surface of a monohull slaps at it. A cat also has a tunnel the faster the cat goes, the more air is able to enter the tunnel.
