It's actually
getting to the point where an engine manufacturer has to have an
available boat line to market their engines.


It reached that point long ago when Yamaha acquired Century and Cobia just
so they'd have some boats to hang their newer motors on.

The boat business is getting like the car business. You can't buy a Ford
with a Chevy engine...and you can't buy a Brunswick boat with a
non-Brunswick engine.
