But not much has happened at PQ the last 4 years.:party-smiley-004:

Anything is possible :drink:

It's just a damn shame. They're great boats and the've been build right here in Holland where I live. There are tons of them on Lake Michigan and everyone who owns one loves them. They're built tough, ride nice, have suffcient speed to get to the beach quickly. Not to mention that thay have always been less expensive than many other boats in the same class. The PQ operation has seen too many issues with owners rotating in and out the door. By the time that the new owners got there, they had too much to recover from. The approach should have been to get products out into the market instead of trying to be a "Me Too" company and make high priced speed freak boats that nobdy can afford. Regardless, they didn't produce anything for 2 years. The business case will never work. I hope someone with good bsuiness sense pick up the tools and does something good with them. Its an end of an era in boating for Michigan.
We'll miss PQ. R.I.P.

What models do you guys think would still sell well if someone were to pick up some of the molds?

What do you think?

Do you see anything over 30 ft selling these days?

2 years?:party-smiley-004:

I don't think much of anything is selling these days.

Should have stayed with with the staples. 26, 29 and maybe the 38 (just because you gotta have a big gun) . If I recall the last time I had talked with someone there prior to Phill Hall they had sold more 26's and 29's then anything else. Like its been said before they never were nor were going to be fast ,simply a great all around do all boat with great lines. I never really understood the why manufactures felt the needed a 20,21,22,23,24,24 and so on sized boat in the line up. Spread them out a bit. Anyhow it will be interesting to see what becomes of the molds.

They should build a 23 or 24, a 26 or 27, a 29 or 30, and the 38. Dont think they had the best luck with the 34 anyway so kill it and the 28. This way they would only have 4 models to deal with. The other problem is powerboats seem to be dying off. They tried to build a Sport cruiser but with no real luck. They need to build a real Sport Cruiser like the 330 through 400SS that Formulas builds. They could build a 33, 36 and a 39, just to be a little different. It appears the sport cruisers are still somewhat selling. All this being said I dought any of it will happen, but it would be nice to see. It just I have owned 3 of these boats and truly feel they are a great boat and think it is very sad to see. Of course I bet allot of people feel the same about all the other brands that have gone away as well.

I agree, the sport cruiser would be a good boat for PQ to build. Right up their alley too since they know how to build acomfortable cabin, and well appointed boats with a solid hull.
