Look at the date of the posts

flight club 12-02-2015 09:12 PM

that first post was from August

TomFTM 12-02-2015 09:51 PM

I guess that the op new something back in August , but was told it was not true. I assume he brought the post back up to show he was right...

I knew joe was buying ol a while ago , (long before this thread) but was not my place to post it ..

JJ30 12-02-2015 10:18 PM

Did Joe buy outerlimits.... 100% of outerlimits No. A percentage of outerlimits Yes. Is there another investor yes.

Just giving credit where credit is due.

I've met Joe a few times. Nice guy and I think he'll help ol keep cranking!

Bostonirish 12-03-2015 06:22 AM

Thread was from August. At that point joe was not the owner. I didn't think it was my place to say otherwise.

A good move inmo .who else jumped in with him ?

Bostonirish 12-03-2015 06:55 AM

He has a business partner who's been a long standing partner with mike. If someone from outerlimits wants to come on here and elaborate they can. Again I don't feel it's my place to name names. I wish them nothing but the best.

You need a few more dumba$$ emojis to really drive your point home.

OK, what the heck is going on then. This was posted Nov 29,2015. Not in August: "A longtime Outerlimits Offshore Powerboats customer and close friend of the late Mike Fiore—the Bristol, R.I., company’s founder—Joe Sgro has purchased the assets of the custom high-performance V-bottom and catamaran builder. The details of the deal, which closed earlier this week, were not released.

“We finally closed on the deal,” said Sgro. “I am the sole owner of the assets of Outerlimits and the new name of the company is 'Outerlimits of Rhode Island.' Michael left us with a lot of molds and a lot of ideas and we are working on a couple of projects I don’t want to talk about yet. Hopefully, we’ll be in full production in six months."

"sole owner"

"But it’s hard to get people to buy boats if they don’t know the company is going to be here the day after tomorrow,” he continued. “Outerlimits is not going out of business. Period. I have a very strong partner who is going to be coming to help run things. Outerlimits is probably in the best financial situation it has been in for the last six or seven years." Read the whole article

Greatguy66 12-03-2015 02:36 PM

Here we go only posted it because I like that Joe was doing it!A real racer!:angry-smiley-038:I knew before you but didn't want to say!STOP!If you know nothing say nothing hows that for driving my point home:bsflag:

Bostonirish 12-03-2015 03:29 PM

If you knew then why would you present it as a question in the general discussions forum? Why not of just start a thread with the fact that you knew he bought the company? And I can assure you as of August it was not joes company. And that will be all I have to say about this. Good luck to joe and the future of his company

And if you are going to act as Joe's mouthpiece then why don't you post useful information or just keep quiet? Good luck Joe. I hope Mike's legacy can live on.

My money is on Reggie Fountain being the partner.

klaatutooyou 12-03-2015 04:56 PM

this is fun lol :food-smiley-007:

billy boats 12-03-2015 06:28 PM

Please stop with all the speculation, hear say, and 3rd party info. I seriously doubt that anyone here has the slightest clue of how Outerlimits was running before Mike's death or after. Speculating on profit, debt,and percentage of ownership is not for anyone to discuss. The point of the press release was to assure any current OL owners or potential OL purchasers that the company will continue with the financial backing of a man (Joe Sgro) that has the passion and experience in performance boating to build the company and inspire confidence that OL will continue to be on the forefront of performance boating.

Feverz29 12-03-2015 07:41 PM

Well said Billy Boats, nice ride as well!
