Dealer Letter #106B

TO: JOHNSON BOAT DEALERS

SUBJECT: RECOMMENDED DEALER PARTS STOCK FOR BOATS AND TRAILERS.

Gentlemen:

We are aware of the situation concerning the problems you are having with the availability of parts for warranty and service repair on our Johnson boats and trailers. Many of you have contacted the Service department for repair parts either because the distributor did not have them in stock or because you needed them right away. This causes a great deal of unnecessary delay.

The attached revised list of recommended parts stock will enable you to order fast moving parts and assemblies for your inventory stock. Even though this list is far from being complete, it will assist you in giving your customer much greater efficiency in service repair work. As time passes, you will be able to alter your present inventory relative to parts demand. You should already have your list for the Johnson engines.

Please place your orders now with your Parts Distributor. The list prices are subject to your regular dealer discount. You are also aware of our new 5% parts return program (Dealer letter #120) which will help you a great deal concerning your inventory of parts.

We are working to make this Johnson Boat program the most efficient one of its kind and to assist you in every way possible. We trust that this list will help us both concerning our new warranty program and in our service efficiency.
