    Step-son and he has not been involved with them for several months now. Bob's wife has been running the place since then. Their most popular boat is laid up by Lynch and is the same 25 v-hull that Genesis, Laser, et.al use. Decent boat for the money. Don't quote me, but I think a standard 496 package goes for somewhere in the $40's.

    Dont know much about their boats....but we will NEVER EVER bring our boat back to them for service! They replaced our motor ( under warranty) f'd up my ski & my husbands....took 2years to finally get the money refunded for replacement ( that they of course got from Mercruiser...long story) then when we picked it up & launched her.....NO OIL IN THE FREAKIN MOTOR!!!!!!!!!!! Horrible!!! Not to mention when we had Snakewrench do a tune up on our boat ( because we had an exhaust leak) this past winter....he said they had put all kinds off bolts & crap that didnt even fit or match....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
