of Wood Manufacturing and will oversee production in Flippin of
Ranger, Stratos and Champion boats. Hopper has led Wood for more than
20 years.

The acquisition also includes the Wellcraft, Four Winns and Glastron

I see Harry and a non-boater are trashing your boating thread, Tim.

If 'Bama had bailed out Genmar, their assets wouldn't have ended up with
the Wall Street ponzi guys.
Why didn't he bail out Genmar?
1. Genmar workers are non-union, so losing their jobs isn't a tragedy.
