Arvor Boats Australia announce that John Crawford Marine is now the official Arvor distributor for Queensland. Matthew Hodson, who - with his wife - purchased JCM in 2004, is no stranger to the Arvor brand. Matt has been selling Arvors since 2001 when he sold his first Arvor 20 to a QLD customer. Matt remembers those early days, "Sales quickly grew and we were told that the shipwright could at best only build two a month, so build slots started to get allocated and we had fun times generating even more demand for these unique boats."
