It is the debut of the ALL NEW 2011 Kawasaki Ultra 300X, a 300 horsepower Jet Ski. The Ultra 300X can only be seen at the Motorplex display.

Christmas Perspective
Just a week until Christmas! It is a time to reflect the past 12 months. My greatest observation is that as I get older, the time goes by faster. Christmas is also a time when people seem to smile more and say kind things. I think that most of us are a bit more relaxed and easy going this time of year. Maybe it's the Christmas music playing at the Motorplex? By the way, have any "classic" Christmas songs been recorded the the last 10 years? Just give me Bing and White Christmas and I'm all set. Throw in Miracle on 34th Street, It's a Wonderful Life, White Christmas, Holiday Inn and Christmas Vacation and I'll be content for a long time.
The economy has really hit families hard this year making Christmas shopping a tall task. My daughter Megan and her husband Matt adopted a family for Christmas. When the mother listed home cleaning supplies as her wish, it really had an impact on how just how hard it is to get by right now. We may complain that being in business is hard in this economy but when you see how many families are truly struggling to get by, the real meaning of Christmas comes through.
My wife and I are truly blessed by a tremendous family. Our 3 girls and our 2 sons-in-law are the greatest reason to be thankful. I know that I'll receive some wonderful gifts this year. I also know that they will have made Christmas happen for 3 less fortunate families. Just knowing that somewhere a little guy or gal is opening a present on Christmas Day, who might not have had a single gift otherwise, is a feeling that will last a lifetime.
I thank my daughters for the gift of compassion. Merry Christmas Everyone!

A DECEMBER TO REMEMBER SALE at the MOTORPLEX
The Christmas Season is here and VanDerZee Motorplex announces our STOREWIDE CLEARANCE SALE! We have gift ideas for the WHOLE FAMILY from clothing and accessories to the "BIG ONES": Personal Watercraft * Motorcycles * ATV's * Scooters * Utility Vehicles * Recreational Vehicles. Every new Kawasaki and Yamaha is ON SALE during our DECEMBER TO REMEMBER SALE!
So many parents and grand parents come to the Motorplex and tell us "We want something that will bring the kids home?" We can tell you that a new Kawasaki Jet Ski or Yamaha Waverunner will do the trick! When our 3 daughters were growing up, Sundays were Jet Ski days at the beach. Sure, we'd have a whole bunch of their friends come too but what great FAMILY FUN. We knew who their friends were, what they were doing and best of all they had a GREAT TIME riding and driving personal watercraft. If you own a 21 foot or bigger runabout, you probably would not consider letting someone else take it for a drive. That is the joy of personal watercraft. They are spontaneous and responsible riding is easy! You can tow water skiers, wake boarders and multiple passenger tubes.
This Christmas choose the gift for everyone in the family, a new KAWASAKI JET SKI or YAMAHA WAVERUNNER. All 4 strokes, all 3 seaters and best of all they are ALL ON SALE. We'll even store your purchase 'til spring at no charge. We've even come up with some unique ways to "wrap" your purchase for Christmas with special photos or other "sneaky" ways to surprise the family. As my daughter Megan always reminds me, "You can't put a price on FAMILY!"

Saving Grace at Thanksgiving
Our family started a tradition years ago when everyone was seated at the Thanksgiving table and ready to begin the turkey day celebration. We go around the table and ask everyone to say what they are personally thankful for. It was awkward at first, but as time has gone by we have gotten some very heartfelt and memorable responses. We truly do live in a country of boundless opportunity. Just one trip to a 3rd world country makes you realize how fortunate we are to live in this country! For all of our faults and what we perceive as huge problems, we truly do have a lot to be thankful for!

Grand Rapids Ultimate Sports Show
This is a new venue for VanDerZee Motorplex. The Ultimate Sports Show at DeVos Place in Grand Rapids is going on this Thursday, March 18th through Sunday. We have Kawasaki Mule Utility Vehicles, ATV's, and Teryx Recreational Vehicles. Last month was the very successful Grand Rapids Boat Show where we displayed our Kawasaki Jet Skis and Yamaha Waverunners. The Ultimate Sports Show is geared toward the avid outdoorsman. We didn't know what kind of crowd to expect but when I saw the folks waiting for the show to open flow out of the building I got excited. This is one WILD show packed with people. Granted, the weather is wonderful but my goodness, these folks are out in droves!
This show has shown us just how much folks love their outdoor activities. We truly live in a great area of lakes, trails and hunting. Come see VanDerZee Motorplex at the Ultimate Sports Show, DeVos Hall downtown Grand Rapids. More later today including the "flying" dog leap into the pool!

Saturday at the Grand Rapids Boat Show
It's 10 am and already the show floor is humming with folks ready for summer. It was a wonderful busy Friday night for the Motorplex. It is gratifying when we talk to parents and grand parents who want the kids and grand kids to have a reason to spend time with the whole family. I was told many times last night: "We want something to keep the kids coming over so everyone can have fun on the water!" We can relate to them just how much fun owning a Waverunner or Jet Ski can be.
The Motorplex team has been doing a great job. I'm impressed with their enthusiasm, energy and how the react to all types of clients from the little 3 year old that wants a beach ball to the senior citizens buying a Waverunner or Jet Ski for the grand kids! It's a 10 t0 9 day. Keep the coffee coming and those wonderful windmill cookies. (Carrie brought the Jimmie Johns last night. It just doesn't get any better except Linda the boss lady keeps the tall ones off limits!)
Enjoy the day and come to Devos in Grand Rapids and see us at the BOAT SHOW!!!
