Default So what offshore builders have gone under/resurfaced in the last 10 yrs?

Had some friends ask me that question the other day. I honestly said it's hard to keep up with. I know Donzi is back up and running as well as Powerquest. Fountain is....? Is Velocity still making boats? Sutphen? I dont think Powerplay has resurfaced. And what about the West Coast contingent? Is Advantage still going? Nordic is still going pretty sure. There's a lot of small builders on the West Coast. Are they all gone?

Scott has restarted Velocity, sounds like the first flats boat will be out the mold soon. I believe he has orders for some 39's and a 290SC?

Fountain is back up (part of Iconic Marine- Fountain/Baja/ DONZI).

Seems that Fountain is making CC's and a small OB Cat. They have one 42 and one 47 being made with the QVC4 motors in them.

DONZI has that cross over V Hull OB boat (2 made maybe), made some classics, and trying to feel the waters out on a quad OB "luxury" cat?.

They have made several Baja's in the 25/27/35 outlaw molds.

Yup. They had a new 700/#6 boat with Waves and Wheels interior at Lake Race this past weekend sitting at the docks at Toad. Good looking boat.

I don't believe that Donzi ever "went under". Although they were close before selling to Iconic Marine.
