Bass boat for weekend escapes

Mike R.Mid-Atlantic Distributors

For three years, Mike R. let his +POINTS ride. Every truckload of insulation, every special-order shipment to Mid-Atlantic Distributors quietly added to the balance — and he barely checked it.

Then he did the math. The balance was enough for a Bass Tracker Classic XL, trailer included. He redeemed it the same afternoon.

These days the boat does more than catch fish. Mike hosts an annual crew tournament on Smith Mountain Lake — drivers, warehouse staff, and a few favorite customers. Last year's big bass came in at 7 lb 4 oz, and the trophy now lives on the counter at the branch.

“I check the +POINTS balance more than I check the weather now.”
