It feels like they just bought them. Could have sent that cash my way instead of just setting it on fire :/

Very odd move considering how strong the outboard market is right now, and so soon after buying them...that was only 3 or 4 years ago, what happened?

Well it's a new what CEO I think it is for volvo so guys that explains it. And the guy obviously has never been to the Miami boat show. This dude needs to get a ride on a 50ft center console and go for a ride. Lol
Hopefully someone will buy it from them and keep it going. But it is stuck a limited market. Electric is coming fokes!

I have to believe someone will step up to fill the hole in the market...my contact at Merc said they are working on a competitor to the 627, wonder how the news has impacted that project.
