| Ocean Pro should start making parts for the freestyle market. I think as racing has died out from what is was in the 80's and 90's now freestyle has grown. I have herd that DASA was about to close down there machince shop then the orders started coming into them for freestyle built motors out of their cylinders. I am just saying I belive there is a market out there for intake grates, ride plates, griddled heads, etc for the freestyle crowd. The Kawasaki sxr800 guys are always looking for new parts to come out for their skis. DASA just came out with some billet powervavle cylinders for an sxr800 but they still could use a better parts on the market. |

| Re: Ocean Pro should start making parts for the freestyle market. Biggest problem is nobody wants to pay what parts are worth anymore, not retail anyhow. Everyone wants a deal. Tough to justify expanding in a direction for a frugal crowd. |

There's a great oppertunity for someone with a little mechanical ability to do really well in the vintage watercraft business and I have all the tooling for those parts .In the mid to late 90's we were doing 2.1 million dollars in OP parts a season,and there's lot of early ski's still out there just waiting for performance parts 440,550, 650, 750's,
I;m looking for a world / national distributor to put in all back into the aftermarket. There is also an oppertunity to buy all the toolinng with or without the Name OCEAN PRO. I think the oppertunity is once again here. Please call for more details. Here are some shots of the tooling stored and the shop. Call the 800# below.
