Since his retirement from baseball, he has focused his attention towards golf and is a regular participant in numerous celebrity golf tournaments. Mr. Citarella will be working closely with Joe Gere, founder and president of Habana Joe, to create a golf apparel line that will incorporate style and functionality the way Habana Joe's Dock to Dine line has done for marine wear.

“We are taking the company to the next level”, says Joe Gere. “Our clothing represents a lifestyle--yachting, fishing, golfing . . . all enjoyable past times. Ralph understands our vision and sees where we can go. We are excited to have him aboard to help us with our mission - developing clothing for life's better moments.”

Inspired by legends of his grandfather's many fishing expeditions to Cuba, Joe Gere, a recreational fisherman himself, created the Dock to Dine line to honor his grandfather's legacy, along with the legacy of all great fisherman and fishing grounds of the past. The clothing line combines the resort, yachting and fishing atmosphere of Havana, Cuba in the 40's and 50's with modern sensibilities.

Headquartered in Freehold, NJ Habana Joe's Dock to Dine apparel is tailored to fit the lifestyle of the active and social man. Their Polo's, Camps, Tees, Shorts bring together quality, comfort and style. Habana Joe is sold at fine retailers and on-line at www.HabanaJoe.com.
