In a very real sense, John Allen is the one man who kept the tradition of West Side Boat Shop going, enabling Doug Bushnell and me to work out a deal to keep the business alive.
John, I am forever grateful and thankful.
All future West Side Boat Shop kayak paddlers will know who you are.
And by the way, I find it odd yet perfect that you and Doug Bushnell have exactly the same laugh.
