Marinette Boat Forum

Good luck with your sale effort. It was interesting to see how your 1973 and my former 1988 boat were so amazingly similar in design features, even down to the hardware. The mfr's stuck fast to the look even as the rounded "euro" styles of the plastic boats were capturing the market. That may have been a factor in the company's 1994 demise but you have to give them credit for making boats that have stood up so well through time.

The demise of the original Marinette factory in Louisville Ky was the expansion of the airport in 1991 to accommodate UPS.
