He has never left the building.

It certainly would be. But if it were me, I'd take this opportunity to retire and buy a shack down in KW.

Last I heard he built a new multi-million dollar shack on the Pamlico. With the right decor, and enough booze, it could be Key Westy.

I got a sneaking feeling that we're gonna be hearing from him and his group in the real near future.

Stay tuned. LOL

I think he and his family will be back. The question will be at what level? If they dont have any molds or facility to work out of, what will they do?
Unless he has alot of backers, I am not sure they will be more than a remodel or repair shop.
Love to see him back in the boat building business, but starting up a new company in todays economy wont be easy.

All this talk reminds me of the New Coke vs. Classic Coke drama of a few years ago - What a successful marketing ploy that was!! Maybe Reggie is waiting for an encore...!
