(Dallas, TX. – October 18, 2011) StockGuru Shines its Spotlight on Brownie’s Marine Group, Inc. (OTCBB: BWMG), a leading developer, manufacturer and distributor of highly specialized dive and safety products. The Company announced yesterday that it had entered into joint venture arrangement with Pompano Dive Center (“PDC”) in Pompano Beach, Florida. The Company closed down 25% on October 17, 2011, closing at $0.0060, with a market cap of $169,704.
The joint venture will place Brownie’s unique and highly innovative dive systems in one of the most active boating and diving communities in the country. The Pompano Dive Center will also act as a training and demonstration site for Brownie’s products; PDC also offers complete SCUBAPRO and HALCYON product display and service. Alongside the retail store, PDC owns and operates several dive boats in Pompano Beach, Florida at the Sands Harbor Marina on the Intracoastal Waterway at the intersection with Atlantic Boulevard and within view of the beach. A classroom for training divers on Brownie’s dive systems enhances the value of the PDC joint venture for Brownies and diving enthusiasts.
Robert Carmichael, CEO, stated: “We are enthusiastic about the potential of adding another great exposure point and the first full-time experience center to our vertically integrated plan. The new battery powered ‘VS’ dive system is causing many boating enthusiasts to embrace hookah diving as their primary dive method. The outstanding performance and convenience of the VS dive system is making hookah diving mainstream. We believe that the VS will provide a boost to the more mature SCUBA industry by bringing in new divers. The relationship with PDC will provide in-water instruction and demonstration dives. The adage ‘OTIWATO’ (One Test Is Worth a Thousand Opinions) rings particularly true as we witness snorkelers and veteran scuba divers alike, return from their first VS experience, they are amazed at the sensation of minimal gear, incredible performance, and great mobility.”
Mr. Carmichael continued: “To further increase our sales force skill, the Pompano Dive Center will serve as the training and demonstration site for Brownie’s Marine Group dealers and distributors globally. Here we will invite new and current dealers to test our groundbreaking technology as we shape the new sports category of recreational hookah diving. In a sense, this is a coming home for Brownies. Brownie’s originated as a company in Pompano Beach in 1969. It is fitting that a new chapter for our company begins here.”
Jeremy Jarosky, Pompano Dive Center CEO stated: “I would like to echo Robert’s enthusiasm, as we have long admired the commitment to quality at Brownies Marine Group. We are proud to be a part of the Brownie’s Team and look forward to adding significant visibility to diving and the underwater world and making it more accessible to everyone.”
