In the News

When yacht designer Tom Fexas reminisced about the halcyon days of Wheeler Yacht Co. for Sea magazine in the March 2004 article “Where Were You in ’52?” he provided pharmaceuticals executive Wesley Wheeler with the impetus to revive the business his family had shuttered four decades earlier.

A couple months after the article was published, I received a call from a Wes Wheeler from California.

It’s inadequate to call boating a hobby. For many, it’s a passion, a dream, or even a way of life; something they were just born into.
