Blake G Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Arne and Bev worked hard all summer getting their new location into shape. They are "almost" ready for the sledding season. Quite an improvement. New and larger showroom, more sleds on display, more clothing and accessories, better shop, better compound, better parking. Here's Arnie catching his breath while Bev looks after a customer in the background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gator Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 C'mon Nunz.... leave the dark side and ride a Cat... once you ride Cat you never go back. This is the first time I've seen a Cat owner admit that a Cat can never make it back to its starting point.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake G Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Arnie's new premises now listed for sale on Kijiji. Gonna have to buy Skidoos from now on. http://www.kijiji.ca/v-other-real-estate/muskoka/newly-renovated-commercial-building-with-tons-of-exposure/1187838552?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake G Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 He still has an ownership stake in the previous location, which is up for lease. I see my ZR900 in the fourth kijij photo.

Blake G Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Haven't spoken with him since the spring, around the time he gave up the Arctic Cat dealership. As far as I know, he still owns the smaller original place in Novar along with the small next-door church. He mentioned something about possibly using that site to deal with vintage Cat parts, and selling out in Port Sydney. He has certainly looked at getting out of the business in the past. Must go see him soon. Maybe retirement beckons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sledguy74 Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 That's very sad to see him shutting down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake G Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Putting the place up for sale may not necessarily mean he is shutting down......unless there is a buyer, that is. We will need to wait and see, I guess.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake G Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 I dropped in on Arnie and Bev today. They are doing great. Arnie said he really likes not being a dealer right now, and is providing service to sleds of all types, atv's, marine stuff and even motorhomes. I made an appointment to take in my zr9000 next week, to get it ready for the winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
