Re: Loan of $176,503.10 (“Loan”) from Seacoast National Bank (“Lender” or “Seacoast”) 
to Starboard Yacht Group LLC (“Borrower”), as evidenced by the Promissory Note 
dated July 17, 2020 (“Note”), secured by a Commercial Guaranty (“Guaranty”) from 
Charles J. Stratmann (“Guarantor”) and a First Preferred Ship Mortgage 
(“Mortgage”) granted by Borrower as Owner of the vessel, Slow Ur Roll II, a 2008 
Everglades 350LX Express, Official No. 1220768, Hull ID RJDE005I708 (“Vessel”), 
including any and all related security documents (the Note, Guaranty, Mortgage, and 
related security documents are collectively the “Loan Documents”)  
Dear Borrower and Guarantor: 
This correspondence follows my prior letter on December 18, 2025.  In that 
correspondence, the Lender demanded that Borrower immediately make the Vessel available for 
inspection under the terms of the Mortgage. On my telephone conversation with Guarantor 
yesterday, January 8, 2026, the Guarantor declined to reveal the location of the Vessel, or whether 
the Vessel was insured.  Although Guarantor stated that the location and insurance information 
would be provided in subsequent written correspondence, the Guarantor’s subsequent 
correspondence continues to withhold the requested information concerning the Vessel. The 
continuing failure to make the Vessel available for inspection is an additional default under the 
Mortgage that has continued for more than 15 days, and is therefore another basis for Lender’s 
acceleration of the Loan. See Mortgage Article I, Section 9; Article II, Section 1(a). 
It has also come to Lender’s attention that at least two lawsuits have been filed against 
Borrower, which, together with the Borrower’s continued withholding of information as to the 
Vessel, has caused the Lender to believe that the prospect of payment or performance of this Note 
is impaired, and, in good faith, believes itself insecure. See Note, p. 2.  
The Lender reaffirms the acceleration of the Loan and demand for the balance of the Loan 
in full.  Furthermore, effective January 9, 2026, the Lender hereby exercises its right to

institute the default rate of interest of 18.00% per annum, in accordance with the terms 
under the Note. 
The balance due on the Loan as of January 8, 2026 is $143,054.75 in principal and 
$1,287.43 in interest, for a total of $144,342.18, plus attorneys’ fees and costs which have accrued 
and continue to accrue (the “Balance Due”). Please contact the undersigned for the total interest 
and legal fees and costs due as of the date you intend to pay off the Loan. Your payment must be 
in the form of a certified check made payable to Seacoast National Bank, mailed to Seacoast 
National Bank, Attn: Jonathan Taylor, 50 SE Kindred St., Ste. 203, Stuart, FL 34994, and reference 
Loan Number 6326-1 in connection with the payment, or by wire pursuant to the wire 
instructions attached hereto. Payment should not be sent to any other individual, department, or 
location. If partial payment is received by Lender, it will be treated as partial satisfaction of the 
amounts past due, but will not be sufficient to release Borrower or Guarantor from their obligations 
to pay the Balance Due.  
Moreover, by this letter and pursuant to the terms of the Guaranty, Guarantor is notified of 
the demand upon Borrower to repay the Loan in full, and Lender hereby demands the Balance Due 
from Guarantor in accordance with this letter.  
Lender reserves the right to exercise any and all of its rights and remedies under the Loan 
Documents, and in law and equity.  For the avoidance of doubt, Lender has not consented to accept 
the Vessel as full or partial satisfaction of your obligations under the Loan.  The acceptance by 
Lender of any future payments on the Loan, to the extent that the Balance Due on the Loan is not 
timely paid in full as set forth above, shall not constitute a waiver by Lender of any defaults under 
the Note, and other Loan Documents executed in connection with the Loan.  The foregoing demand 
also is made without waiving any of Lender’s other default rights and remedies available under 
the Note or the other Loan Documents and under applicable law, all of which rights and remedies 
are hereby reserved by Lender. 
For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent you have received or receive any other 
correspondence that is inconsistent with this letter, this letter supersedes all such correspondence.   
We look forward to your prompt and timely response to this demand and full payment of the Loan 
as set forth above in order to avoid further action. 
Sincerely, 
AKERMAN LLP
