Execute Sports Inc.

This recent booking follows orders received for 114 boats or $2.4 million from dealers that attended a dealer meeting sponsored by Execute's marketing agent, Challenger Powerboats Inc.

 

The new dealer relationship in Moscow, Russia was arranged by Challenger's international boat distributor that has relationships with over 140 dealers worldwide, particularly in Europe, Central America, the Far East and Middle East. Commenting on the latest orders, Geno Apicella, Execute's CEO, said, “The competition in the water-jet powered boat market is limited to a only a few participants. The market for these boats is building as consumers become increasingly aware of their lower cost of maintenance.” Mr. Apicella added, “Annual boat show season begins in January and there are several dealers around the country displaying the Sugar Sand line of boats at these shows. We are confident the sales backlog for Sugar Sand boats will continue build as the boat show season progresses.”

 

Sugar Sand boats are powered by Mercury's Sport Jet that give its boats the most torque and pulling power for water skiing and joy riding. Because they are water-jet powered, they are more fuel efficiently and, unlike outboard boats, they can ride in shallow water.

Detailed Quote: http://www.otcpicks.com/quotes/DEXT.php

 

Dexterity Surgical's equipment may have helped surgeons make some nimble moves, but the company itself wasn't nimble enough to avoid bankruptcy. The firm made hand-assisted laparoscopic surgery (HALS) equipment, which allowed surgeons some of the benefits of both open surgery and laparascopic (minimally invasive) procedures. Its PneumoSleeve product allowed surgeons to insert one hand into the abdominal cavity during surgery. Dexterity Surgical filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2004 in an effort to reorganize its debt; it later decided to liquidate and had sold its assets by 2006. The company is operating as a shell and is looking for a reverse acquisition opportunity.
