Default No SeaCrafts in miami!!

Just got back from the Miami show, and guess what SeaCraft is not there. Ive been suspicious for a couple of months that production was stopped, but now it seems apparent that SeaCrafts are once again not being made. Maybe they didnt want the expense of the show but the whole mako/kenner line was on display. Not sure how I feel about this, on one hand I feel tracker never knew what to do with the line,and at the same time im sad to see a boat brand I love so much simply fade from view. Thoughts?

I spoke to a sales manager at Bass Pro in Savannah, GA - he told me they were building them to order. You place the order and pay - get your boat 4 weeks later. Said the plant is now in North Carolina somewhere - who knows - just reporting what he said.

By the way - he had some 2008 and 2009 "leftover" models out in the lot. Been sitting in the sun an d weather for 3 years!! Even at that they were pricey - $34K plus for a 2008 20SF and a 150 Opti.

I was at the Miami show Friday and came back wondering my self. Looks like in 30 years from now all SeaCrafts will be Classics.

Yeah, kinda sad about the "new SeaCrafts", but the only ones that will REALLY matter are the Classics anyway.!! However in 30 years I'll be long gone and my ashes spread in the Keys. What's really cool is I can leave my 23' SF to my Grandson and it will last through him.

Not surprised, too many bad stories about shoddy workmanship and non-existent customer service. Now it seems like Contenders were not made much better. You shell out big bucks and then are told that multiple stress cracks are "to be expected"???
