The general public has always had a misconception of how many new boats are actually sold in the U.S. In 2000, there were 342,000 new boats sold in the U.S. – outboard boats of all kinds, inboard ski/wake boats, inboard cruisers, and sterndrive boats. Today, new boat sales, in the same categories, total less than half that number.

Someone I know in the industry believes that Marinemax will end up owning Sea Ray. Doesn't sound good. From #1 boat brand in the world to being owned by a dealer group...

With luck our friends at the Carver group stay strong.
Their customer support and response to inquiries has been excellent.
As I am new to this brand, I can say that as far as I am concerned they are a top notch organization. I hope they are around for many years.

Carver has weathered many storms, and, with some struggling, has always come back. I think it may be the people of the upper midwest where Carver is located that help keep existing owners interested and recommending Carver to new people.
