Running flat out to keep up with demand for its services, the vaunted high-performance marine powerhouse is as busy as it’s ever been, https://www.offshoreonly.com/article...rmance-engines.

I liked this article. This guy sounds like my kind of guy. Say it like you mean it

He's like the Smokey Yunick of the 21st Century!

The most interesting thing to me is the 7 month backlog. I am dealing with a hefty backlog of engines in my shop now too....its good to have a backlog, but that far out means you are busy but never make more money. You need to up the production once you get out past 8-10 weeks. I just found it interesting because I'm fighting this battle right now, although in automotive racing not marine.

Glad to see this business thriving and I thought it was a good read.

Thanx Trump!

There's no qualified help, no new people getting into the industry, and nobody that wants to work hard. All things that are required of hi-tech mechanical. Cookie cutter is different, then all we're lacking is anybody that wants to work hard and get dirty.

I see this across many industries, and whomever I call to network with on available talent, has the same problem.

It's really a shame, a huge challenge, and there's no quick fix.
