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.

It's really a shame, a huge challenge, and there's no quick fix.
A U T O M A T I O N .....- unfortunately neither Sterling, nor can we, apply these technologies to custom applications.
