Looks sweet! What is it? Where was it made etc? I think it's a lake minnetonka boat.

Matt,
Didn't you tell me it takes a shot. Pills don't work anymore. Maybe that was just in your case

I would NEVER party with a stern drive.

Think about it.

Windsor Craft. Made in Turkey for Irv The Liquidator Jacobs' Genmar before it went bankrupt. Major problems with the boat. Apparently delamination of the hull and finishes that peeled off in sheets.

Only a handful were built.

Jacobs sounds like he went to the "Chainsaw" Al Dunlap school of business management. Serves him right for not having his boat built stateside if it's delaminating.

He took down some of the greatest boat icons in the USA, including Four Winns,Larson,Well Craft, Carver, Glastron, and Ranger boat and more. Glad to see he owns an epoxy de-laminated nightmare ..............markmcisaacinc.com

They used to hang pirates, now they are rewarded with millions of dollars.

He bought back Larson and Carver and several other boat brands from the bankruptcy court at auction. Got 'em all for next to nothing.

The brands he bought weren't worth a penny more than he paid, hence no one outbid him. The pleasure boat industry is not one that is easy to make money in, especially with middle and lower tier brands so there simply isn't much value.

Whether they were worth what he paid or not, the issues is how pirates like that make there money at the expense of us peons. or was that peed on. I just can't get this speal chekker to work this morning.

He got Carver for about $6 million and they had something like $30 million in finished boats awaiting shipment. Plus the inventory, land, buildings, molds/tooling. Can't tell me it wasn't worth more than what he paid.
