Serious concerns about notability and verifiability. —Emufarmers^(T/C) 02:52, 22 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete My search for reliable sources yielded a single passing mention back in the 1990s. This company is not notable by Wikipedia standards. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 03:17, 22 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete per lack of notable mentions. On my Google and Yahoo search, all I found were Facebook and YellowPages websites. SwisterTwister talk 03:48, 22 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per a literal interpretation of WP:WHOCARES. There are 800 companies on this 'exceptions' list and that they got one is immaterial in any sense. No sources at all to speak of, and even then, it's just your average charter boat, of which there are many. Nate • (chatter) 06:53, 22 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete. This business apparently charters sport fishing boats. They're an outfit with 10 employees that got a waiver from some requirement of the Obama health care bill. I don't see either of these claims meeting the minimal claim of importance needed to make them an encyclopedia subject, much less a significant impact on history, culture, or technology. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 16:36, 22 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete for lack of notability — membership in a list of companies with waivers doesn't establish notability, and there is no evidence of individual notability of the company based on the cited sources. If the article is kept, it probably requires work for WP:NPOV; note the use of the "Obamacare" epithet to explain an otherwise unrecognizable abbreviated form of the health care reform bill's name.
