    Tradewinds Coach Converts Triple-Slide Prevost Shell

    DeLand, Fla – Small business does not mean small projects for Tradewinds Coach & Marine as the company is set to begin a custom conversion on a triple-slide Prevost shell in 2018. Owned by Scott Bennett and Brian Miller, the ambitious conversion embodies the spirit of a growing local company.

    “We are fortunate to be surrounded by wonderful customers,” Bennett said. “We have developed long-lasting relationships that have allowed the business to continue to develop seamlessly. We are excited about what lies ahead.”

    The coach conversion comes at an optimal time for the company. In less than a decade, the two-man (mobile only) shop has seen great expansion. With 13 full-time employees operating in a 40,000-square foot facility, Tradewinds has solidified itself in the Prevost and luxury motorhome industry.

    “We have hired some additional technicians for this project,” Miller said. “A conversion of this size will take some time, but the company is in a place where it can excel in production without missing a beat on the service side of the business.”

    While Prevost enthusiasts will have to wait to see the finished project, the company will continue business as usual focusing on its core business; service, repair, remodels and upgrades.

    Tradewinds plans to attend multiple events this year including the Prevost Motorhome Expo in West Palm Beach, Fla. The company will have three coaches for sale at the expo and will also stay on site camping amongst other customers and Prevost owners.

    If anyone is considering the purchase of a coach or a remodel of an existing coach and is down in FL it is well worth stopping in and visiting with the folks at Tradewinds.

    Tom and I have visited several times and each time we come away impressed with their growth, quality of their work, and the scope of what they do.

    I hope Kyle will post photos of the work in process because it is going to be very interesting watching an empty shell converted.

    Looking forward to seeing your previously owned coaches at the Expo. We will be staying in the VIP camping so should be able to look them over in detail. We are seriously in the market.

    That’s the 2nd shell that Parliament never started. It went to Staley and now to Tradewinds. Geo.
