Do they still make boats? Seems they went out of business? If so, when?

********* Marine Trading International is still building boats and you can buy a new one today if you want to.
Parts are another issue,* The nature of the beast is that so many different variables over the years makes any kind of parts inventory impossible.
******** MT main yard is located in Toms River NJ just a stones throw from where our boat is docked.* The last time I spoke to Don Miller he said he had tried a yard in China but I believe he is not building in China now.
******** This Fall they took at least one of their new MTs down to the Baltimore Trawlerfest.* I don't know how many he sold last year, but when I was at his yard* I met a couple who just took delivery of their new 36 and they were pumped.
Their first trip was to take her home to the Carolinas then retirement cruising.
******** It was a sedan model and really roomy, somehow they even tucked a washer/dryer under the steps to the flybridge.
******** Anyway, Yes they are still in business and that means something in this economy.** JohnP
