Norfolk, VA – Dec.15, 2010 –boats.com and BoatTrader.com have announced that Carson and Carter McBride of Springdale, AR are the winners of the “Tap into Summer” Video Contest. Many creative videos were submitted, and the public vote decided the McBrides’ video was worthy of the top award.
Both Carson, 9, and Carter, 6, are avid anglers and came up with the video idea while “pretend fishing,” something they enjoy. They picked up their Triton 16 Storm at the Brunswick aluminum boat manufacturing facility in Lebanon, MO where they received a VIP tour.
“The viral marketing impact of video is an increasingly important marketing element, and Carson and Carter’s video is a great example,” said Kim Rocco, brand manager, Boats.com and BoatTrader.com, in making the announcement. “Their creativity and enthusiasm for fishing is evident – they are the next generation of boaters!”
