One of the world's top rockers waxed lyrical about his Australian-built luxury boat on a recent visit to our shores, taking the chance to catch up with its creator earlier this month.
Joel, a fan of the brand since his previous visit in 2006 when he bought a 25 Retrosun model, which was delivered November 2007 to Miami Florida, contacted manager, Peter Wyllie from the Melbourne leg of his national tour.
'He invited us to his concert on the 4th and to catch up back stage before the show,' explained Wyllie. 'He told us he finds he Pegiva Retrosun the perfect boat for cruising the Florida Waterways. People are always asking him about the boat and he tells them it’s from Australia and to visit pegiva.com to find out more.'
Owners of Pegiva Sports Boats, Gerry and Dorothy Wyllie enjoyed their back stage natter with the Piano Man and couldn't have been prouder as Joel sang the praises of his little Aussie boat.
