I've heard they are actually a pretty low-quality mfj. I know theres a
dealer that sells a few of them locally , but you don't see many of
them.

But I was thinking that if they are so bad, then how do they stay in
business?

Surely , I would think, they have to make something good.....

how did they get their dubious reputation?

I think most US made boats have ****ty fit and finish. I owned a Wellcraft
that was falling apart from day one. Bayliners actually got their act
together because of all the crap they were catching for their crappy
quality. If there was only more competition from foreign boat manufacturers!
maybe some day.

Crownline is a mid price range boat that consistently rates in the top
end in all consumer reviews. Anyone who was in the market for a a
runabout or a maxi cruiser (bubble boat) really should check out
Crownline. There are a number of people who own them on our dock and
everyone who owns one LOVES them. It reminds me of Honda owners in the
80's and 90's. They are rabid when describing how great their boat is.
