    Glass RT Be sure and give us an update. I'm going to try to make it up there in the next month or so. Just need a slow couple days at the office to skip out.

    Pretty sad!! But I think we all knew deep down that they'd never make it fly in this economy.

    Sad to hear of the factory closing. The bad economy was their demise definitely not the quality of the boats. Every boater I know had nothing but respect for PQ brand.
