Why would someone buy out the Mainship line and not build the boats? The Mainship trawlers and pilots are a very popular boat. Is Marlow going to continue to build any of them? The new Camano, built by Helmsman, is beautiful. They seem to be able to sell them in the $400K range. That re-design of the forward Vee Berth was brilliant.
Most Mainship owners that I have spoken with love the boat. Pretty good quality, layout is good, fuel economy is OK. I would make a few changes, given the opportunity. Nothing major. I would eliminate that door to the head in the stateroom, hard to open the door all the way.
Marlow should start building some boats! The economy is improving and there must be a market. From what I hear from people is the yacht sales business, nice boats priced right don't last too long.
