Not sure if you guys saw the video Triumph did last year when they
pulled the boat on the ground but they just did another one and it's
even funnier. Those guys do some crazy stuff. You can check it out

That is a funny video.

And I'm convinced. If I need to buy a boat to drop off the back of a
speeding semi, bounce off a few trees, or fling off a 100-foot cliff
into a lake below it will be a Triumph. Not so sure it will plane
well, track well, ride reasonably dry, maintain the cosmetic integrity
of the finish, or do any of the other things one would appreciate in a
boat of that type, but who cares if you can bounce it off of trees and
semis? :-)

It reminds me of the stunt that Boston Whaler pulls every few years-
they saw a boat in half athwartship and then motor back to the dock in
the half with the engines attached. Boston Whaler builds a pretty
decent boat and they don't *have* to resort to that sort of gimmick-
but I suppose it gets the attention of folks who otherwise wouldn't
take time to consider the brand before buying something similar
elsewhere.
