They have done well, but large boat people have to overcome the stigma if you will of being associated with the consumer grade market.

This is the same stigma Bayliner buyers have to overcome. Just like the garmin large electronics line has no resemblance to the same brand equipment carried by a backpacker, my 47' Pilothouse has no resemblance to a 16' $16K Bayliner runabout.

Same thing in other industries. Remember the cheapo Emerson brand TV's of the 80's? Well today Emerson network power is probably supplying the power equipment to most data centers in America.
