Interestingly, the best I see consistently are from American builders. Surprisingly Marquis does a really good job. The European production...
What would be interesting to see is what happens going forward with the Euro dropping against the Dollar. The new boats today from Europe, versus...
Only the direct expenses related to the charter to offset the revenue from the charter. Declare the revenue and claim the expenses. You can't...
It would be a confusing strategy if they did. That would be like having the Ferrari factory store also sell BMWs. :confused:
Many builders that you listed are indeed factory direct, but with limited "retail" outlets. By buying ARBG, Ferretti Group now has a large...
I am not surprised that the big, premium brands are looking to own their sales channel and have "factory stores". Not sure if MarineMax was doing...
Yacht Transport vessels were only cited as an example of a commerical vessel, since this is a yacht forum and some of the audience might have...
NYCAP123, that looks like a Fairline Targa 62! The 62 I used to have wasn't much better, but at least one didn't have to step down on the...

I agree with that. The boating industry is not going to disappear. But I don't think MM can take a "business as usual" or "just a bump in the...
Fair enough... but that is a 1998 article and IPO shareholders are often long gone (especially since the stock has seen better days). Here is...
Marine Max is a public company. Ticker: HZO. Unrelated to Brunswick (ticker BC) other than being a customer.
I think there is a big difference between a regular planned shutdown when employees get a vacation break and still get paid versus a "temporary...
You just need to listen to the MarineMax May earnings call. Not only is revenue down 25% (and I suspect April might be off 40%) they are cutting...
