Seemed fairly clear until I read the final paragraph. Is the Spectre name included or not??? Mentioning "reviving the Spectre brand" confuses the issues. Seems to me the buyer would get tooling only, not the brand. Similar to Powerquest...the deal suggested the PQ name was included when indeed it was not.
If I remember right, back in 2006 when the original sale was done the Spectre Catamaran name (or similar) went with the sale of the molds but Jay was going to retain the Spectre CC name/business. Wasnt real clear and definately created two very similarly named companies. Conrad got the deal done before I could but always wonder how that worked out. Guess it never was....
I bet the molds end up back with jay, either leased from Gary or purchased outright.

Oh and if anyone else is wondering the Adrenaline 30 molds aren't for sale - I tried 
According to Frisini boats it will be rolled into the Hypersonic lineup and more effort placed on building that brand. The whole leasing agreement/brand dispute explains a lot on why the Spectre brand was never really built up.

Honestly with the lease deal they had with Gary I'm not sure what's up with Adrenaline either. The seller with the 24 molds claim to have the brand, trademark etc so not sure if the 30's are truely Adrenalines. Same with Sonic...have to wonder if they purchased or leased those as well.
Honestly, Frisini should have bought what they wanted then created their own distinct brand. Keeping the original names has caused more confusion than the names were worth in my opinion. Either focus on totally reviving the brand or start over and create some distinction.
