I have never stated this publicly until today as it is not really my style. I was reminded of them earlier today, and I felt this is the perfect venue to warn others about them.
They had agreed to be my major sponsor for the record run from Key West to Cancun with a $10,000.00 pledge. Just days before the run took place, they went AWOL. I received nothing! :(
If you ever think of having them sponsor one of your boats or events, get the money up front.
Life goes on.:seeya:

Who are they? What do they do?
P.S. Are you going to KW?
That sucks Bob.
They're about to feel the power of SOS and Sunkin!:biggrinjester:
Hey Chris, they are real estate developers and builders in Utah. Kinda like me, cept much BIGGER which means they will soon be much smaller. LOLQuote:

Anyway it is not my intention that this thread be used to beat on them as I am sure it will make no difference at all. I just want to warn others if they had any thoughts of tapping them for sponsorship.
Yes, I am taking a group of boats down to Key West from Marco on the Thursday and back on Monday morning following. See you there?:)

They also sponsored a supercat. Name was gone before LOTO.
Yes, that would be Steve Page / Joey G. Steve shared some things with me regarding Celerity sponsoring them but not going to get into that here. Not my place.Quote:

They did come up with the money for Havasu.....I know they bounced out after that...
I wonder why some many bite there tongue and leave the rest to hang.I guess on the other foot if they warned ya might get crucified.
I just Googled Celerity Investments out of curiosity to see what they were up to these days and found this interesting tidbit in the Sept 15 / 08 edition of " Courthouse News Service". Under "Commerce" it says that investors were defrauded of $1.2 M. I see 2 of the people I dealt with, Wayne Aston and Gary Wilson are both named.
Wonder how it turned out?
