“Workboat Division” launched by Emerson Bearing

By Anonymous

BOSTON, MA September 18, 2004 -- Emerson Bearing, one of the largest independent bearing distributors in the country has recently established a new “Workboat Division” to specifically cater to the work boat industry. From fishing boats to super tankers to port authorities, Brighton, Mass. based Emerson Bearing has the right bearings on hand and can provide the fast turnaround required for the job.

Over the past year, Emerson Bearing has developed a reputation for having the needed inventory, competitive pricing and fast turnaround that work boats demand. From fishing boats, large vessels, oil tankers and ferries to commuter boats, port authorities, dock cranes and the dredging industry, Emerson has the right bearing for the job, allowing for prompt maintenance. With a vast inventory on hand that includes Craft brand split bearings to sheave wheel bearings, Emerson cuts repair time down from what could be weeks to one day.

According to Steve, Katz, CEO of Emerson Bearing, “Most people in the bearings industry sell to a particular geographic region and have a limited knowledge of the bearings needed by the work boat industry. That’s where we differ – everyone on our staff has 20 plus years of bearings experience, we serve the entire country and we provide the fastest turnaround possible because most everything is in stock.”

Catering to the workboat industry throughout the country and beyond, Emerson Bearing is the primary supplier of bearings to the Coast Guard in Boston and they also provide bearings to the Guam Shipyard to repair Navy vessels. The largest sheave wheel bearing that Emerson has supplied was 3 ½ ft tall and used in a dredging job in the Panama Canal.

“The work boat industry is one of our niche markets. It’s only natural for us to establish a specific division for it. We’ve been around for 50 years, our prices are competitive and no one rivals our inventory,” noted Katz.

The products that Emerson supplies to the work boat industry include sheave bearings, split spherical roller bearings, pillow blocks, belts, roller chain, leaf chain and mast guide bearings.

Fixed Pricing and Same Day Delivery
Dedicated to accommodating clients’ production and delivery needs, Emerson Bearing can set up a buy program at a fixed price for up to sixteen months. For some companies, Emerson Bearing has bearings delivered the same day by air via exclusive couriers with arrangements through Emerson Bearing.

Emerson’s Troubleshooting Programs
Emerson Bearing’s “Failure Analysis” program helps clients identify common bearing failures by providing close-up visuals of problematic bearings as well as definitions and causes of each type of bearing failure.

Unable to read the numbers on an old bearing? Emerson’s online “Bearing Detective” asks all the right questions to enable an Emerson specialist to track down the bearing required. Within one business day of submitting the online form, the Emerson specialist will get back to the customer with an answer. Visit www.emersonbearing.com and click Failure Analysis or Bearing Detective links.

From the Inventor, Da Vinci to the Supplier, Emerson
In a proud tradition, the same families that started the company in 1957 keep Emerson Bearing rolling by specializing in bearings for OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers) and MRO (Maintenance, Repair and Operations) markets across the country. More than 30 people comprise their knowledgeable staff backed up by 33,000 square feet of warehouse holding bearings from miniatures of 3mm inside dimension to tunnel-boring 15-foot-diameter giants.

Offering the right bearing for the job, Emerson Bearing also offers several price points within their vast inventory drawn from Asia, Europe and North America. Premium bearing brands include SKF, FAG, NTN INA and NSK while value priced bands such as KBC, IKO, NBR, and NACHI are also in stock along with Abec#1 to Abec#7. In addition Emerson Bearing stocks in depth specialty products such as cam followers, linear motion bearings, and non-bearing items including oil seals, o-rings, roller chain, and v-belts.

From 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. EST and Saturdays from 8 to 12, the Emerson Bearing staff is available to answer questions on bearings, their applications and where to find them. Their flexible shipping schedule allows the customer to receive emergency stock within 24 hours or enjoy fixed pricing on items to be shipped over 18 months while they’re stored at Emerson’s warehouse. Emerson Bearing maintains headquarters at 201 Brighton Ave. Boston, MA. Phone them at 617-782-0444 or toll free, 800-225-4587 or visit their website at www.emersonbearing.com

Sail Away with HauteSpot WiFi

By Anonymous

SAN LUIS OBISPO, CA August 1, 2004 -- Wireless Internet Access is HAUTE! HauteSpot Networks, a Broadband Over Wireless equipment provider, specializing in extended range 802.11, today announced the availability of a complete, simple to use WiFi kit for boaters, truckers, RV owners and vehicle fleet operators.

The HauteRoute NL-2511MP5-KIT includes a high performance PCMCIA 802.11b network adapter board, a 5dBi gain magnetic mounted antenna, and all the cabling and software required to access 802.11b networks at incredible ranges...even while moving!

When used in conjunction with extended range base station equipment such as the HauteRoute HR-2611DX 802.11b Access Point, HR-3054DX 802.11b/g Access Point or the HR-5354DX 802.11a/b/g Access Point, and appropriate outdoor antennas, users can expect line of sight and near line of sight performance ranges measured in miles rather than feet.

The HauteRoute NL-2511MP5-KIT incorporates a variety of compelling and unique technologies into one solution including:

High gain radio equipment – The NL-2511 CB Plus Ext2 card, included in the KIT has some of the most compelling performance specifications available in an 802.11b board. Up to 23dBm/200mW power output and up to -96dB receive sensitivity, combined with support for automatic rate scaling, power output control, and 128 bit WEP in software.

High gain telemetry – The EA-MP5 multipolarized omni directional antenna which is included in the KIT has radio signal transmitting and receiving characteristics which are unparalleled. Multipolarized technology propagates a radio signal in many planes, allowing the radio signals to reflect and refract off of objects. This results in outstanding obstruction penetration. When normal 802.11 devices fail to receive or send an adequate signal, the EA-MP5 comes through with a resounding 5 by 5!

The included magnetic mounting base and 12 feet of low loss lead in cable allows the antenna to be mounted easily, and without holes, on any steel surface.

The NL-2511MP5-KIT may be purchased through the HauteSpot Networks on-line store at http://www.hautespot.net/store/proddetail.asp?prod=NL%2D2511MP5%2DKIT&cat=25 or through EBay at http://stores.ebay.com/HauteSpot-Networks .

Customers can estimate the distance limitations when using the NL-2511MP5-KIT by visiting the HauteSpot Networks Wireless Distance Calculator web page at http://www.hautespot.net/support/wirelesspath.asp This handy tool allows customers to specify the types of equipment that they plan to use and calculate the radio signal quality that is theoretically possible with their chosen configuration.

HauteSpot Networks is also encouraging marina owners, RV park owners, Truck stop owners, and vehicle fleet operators to install extended range outdoor access point equipment at their locations to support mobile users.

Customers can learn more about the HauteRoute product line, and all of the innovative wireless products and services offered by HauteSpot Networks by visiting their web site at www.hautespot.net.

YACHTS BY OWNER OFFERS NEW WAY TO LIST BROKERAGE BOATS

By Anonymous

ANNAPOLIS, MD (November 1, 2002) -- Yachts By Owner recently launched a revolutionary new yacht brokerage service to provide sellers with an effective alternative to conventional brokerage. This unique service handles all of the marketing, follow-up, negotiation and paperwork involved in the yacht sales process, while the seller is only responsible for showing the boat thus, reducing the complexity and cost of yacht sales to sellers and buyers.

CEO Jim Maier founded Yachts By Owner earlier this year to help a growing number of clients sell their boats for a better price in less time. By negotiating advertising on behalf of several clients at once, Maier is able to provide a valuable service at a reduced cost – just three percent of the boat’s selling price. Yachts By Owner advertises boats through national and regional print publications, and the Internet to achieve maximum exposure for the listings.

“We provide boat sellers with a turn-key sales package that takes all the mystery and hassle out of selling their boat. Our sellers get to do what they know best, which is to show their own boat, and we focus on what we know best, which is marketing and paperwork,” said Maier. “The national listing service is designed to benefit the sellers, but because of the reduced commission, boat buyers can often see reduced costs reflected in lower selling prices,” he added.

While there are many benefits to the Yachts By Owner sales system, the ease of use and the increased level of savings are the biggest draws. For example, an owner of a $300,000 yacht has the opportunity to save $21,000 with this new sales system versus conventional brokerage. Starting the sales process is as easy as following the three-step registration, with an experienced Yachts By Owner employee assisting with every aspect of the yacht sale.

Jay Hollingsworth of Roanoke, VA recently sold his 46' yacht with the help of Yachts By Owner, "I was pleasantly surprised to learn how little I actually had to do. One of the representatives was always available when I had a question. From when I received the “For Sale” sign to hang on my boat all the way through to closing the process was very easy. Best of all, I saved nearly $20,000."

Boat sellers interested in using this service can sign up online at http://www.Yachts-ByOwner.com. A simple, three-step process registers the user and begins the selling process.

Founded in 2002, Yachts By Owner, located near Annapolis, Maryland, specializes in brokerage services for boats $45,000 and up anywhere in the United States. Additional information can be found at www.Yachts-ByOwner.com or by calling 410-604-1600.
