Default What time of year to purchase a boat

Good movie Chuck, thanks for the link. I'm not the biggest fan of Sea
Ray boats but have to admit that watching those robotic drills and
routers swoop in and start cutting holes in the hull is pretty cool
stuff. They are obviously achieving economies of scale that no small
builder could ever aspire to.


I thought their new technology where a single, continuous thread of glass is
laid in the mold by the robot, and then a another mold placed on top and the
layup saturated with resin was particularly interesting. They show an entire
hull being
produced this way, but if you check out
the small parts on Sea Ray it's easy to see which are produced with this
technique, they have a "finished" appearance on both sides.
