For only $300k you too can own your very own boat company!!! LMAO!
Who among us is gonna step up and buy it?! I actually like the hull design and the outboard powered one (twin 30hp Tohatsu's). I'm not sold on the twin Torqueedo's. I also wish they had a pilothouse or cabin style above deck. This design is only good FL, Caribbean etc. Cool boat but obviously it didn't sell and now the company is for sale for peanuts.

If peanuts sold for the same as gold. How long and how many boats would you have to sell to get your $300K investment back? Remember, these are boats that don't sell.
It does look great. But mainly it makes me appreciate the spacious berth in my CD 16.

We bought a boat company during a severe recession for pennies on the dollar, made some boats, and sold the company during good times. This guy wants to sell a company which probably has poor sales, at a boom time--not good investment!

| Not sure about the selling proposition of the first eco friendly cats, pretty sure sailing catermans are a hit? |
