Back in the '50 & '60's there was a boat built in Ill. by
Crownlin. Is this boat any part of them?? They were very
good boats by the way.

You heard it hear first. The BassPro Shop king has
purchased Crownline
Boats. Should be announced in a week or two.


curious - i wonder why? its not like he needs to expand
his boating
line into another area.

Good question:

There is a Bass Pro shop just down the road from where I
live in N.
Atlanta. One guy told me they would only be selling the
larger Crownline
boats. Where they are going to put them I have no idea.
Ubless they are
going to get rid of some of the Tahoe's..

Another guys said they will not be selling that at that
location. I
wonder how this effects existing franchises. There is a
dealer not all
that far away.
