I think it did some good for Wellcraft in the 80's but what about now? But the James Bond Movie made me check out the Cafe's 17 years ago. I should add I also purchased one. I am sure somebody somewhere will get interested in boating as a result of the movie. You can only hope that the race scenes will bring more interest and possibly sponsors into the offshore circuit. Your question of what is it doing for Wellcraft today? Well, what has Wellcraft done for offshore performance boater lately. |

Express,
I know what's going on with Wellcraft today. What I meant was are boats selling today because of TV/ Movie exposure? |

Your novice person sitting in a theater is not going to achieve brand recognition unless it is plastered all over the boat. I beleive one potential beneficiary of the race scenes may be the Carbonnel's of the world. That is the potential of sponsors with $$$$ wanting to jump on the band wagon. Naturally AB, on the leading edge as usual has their #1 contribution to offshore racing participating in the movie. :cool: |
