Re: Customer Service "TEST"

I live in Volusia County; the home of the Costa del Mar company. I always try to support local businesses, so I gave them a second chance. Now I'll never buy another pair from them. I had a lens drop out of my 6 month old glasses, and drop onto concrete. Somehow, it didn't break, but it did get scra...

I've caught a lot of fish from it, but haven't had it out much in recent years. I have owned at least a half dozen boats since then, but now I'm down to just the canoe. My canoe ...
