Well Reggie´s covered alot of the discussed issues with that statement, for sure. From 18 models down to 10, starting at 23 feet. Take away the 20 OL, (the new) Hammer, 192 and 202 - and that still leaves another six models to leave the fold!
Five of which could be the whole Outlaw line.....
...or maybe he will cream off the bigger models, that are covered by similar sized Fountain models, and only produce 23OL, 242, 245, 247, 26OL, 277, 278, 30OL, 335 and 342.

I would expect the H2x to disappear, because it is the oldest model in the current range (however, still one of the best looking ones).

I could also see the 23OL dropped for economic reasons. There are almost the same sized (and number of) components involved in that boat (motor, drive, instruments, bolster seats, clamps and trim) as are used in a 26OL, but it can only warrent a price sticker for a 3 foot shorter boat.

Anyone else want to sort out the ten survivors?

My list of expected survivors.

23, 26,30,35 Outlaws
245,278 (rummor of possible 405/415 and 335)
247,277 Islanders.

Say bye-bye to the 20 Outlaw, 192 and 202 Islanders, H2X, the Hammer X and the 342.

This has my vote. Not as much money in the little guys as the big guys - 245 and below are gone.

Where do you think our boat values will go? Do you think they will even be affected?

23 - 26 - 30 outlaw

242 - 245 - 277 - 278

335 -415

That is nine out of ten. So will he keep the 35?

I would guess the majority of the keepers will be in the Outlaw series. The 405 & other thing will go away as will most of the islander & performance series.
