98...Thanks ..You know this is golden opportunity for someone to recoup there investment in 1 or 2 seasons and be sittin pretty with the Ocean Pro trademark and products. The product line has been refined to the last detail over the last 30 years. Anyone with a basic mechanical ability can run and manage it. A small business loan for the purchase would be pocket change. It certainly would not be a burden on the potential of what you can do with just the existing early stuff, let a loan adding new stuff. Hell there’s almost enough profit in the existing inventory to pay for the purchase. You know I started Ocean pro in a one car garage with nothing but a small hand held tool box. I was racing speedway motorcycles on the circuit at the time. I had really no money but a lot of ideas. What you see in the pictures all came form those ideas not backers or a 30 year jump start. So if I can do it form that point someone can sure kick butt from this point. Especially with all the new interest in the early watercraft.
Thanks again 98

man, i'm suprised someone that works for you doesn't want to step up and take over or someone local that isn't interested. i am just getting into cnc machines, pretty cool stuff. sounds like a sweet job making this stuff and living out on the coast.

I thought I seen this for sale on Ebay like a year or 2 ago. Is there a reason it is taking this long to sell?
