re: Blue Wave Boats are out of business

I was curious since I’ve been impressed with the few I’ve fished, it looks like it went down like this;

Husband and wife founded company years back, made a good boat and grew

Sons took over business from parents when they retired

PE firm from cali approaches them about funding an expansion, promises to be hands off, then fires the two sons once they own the place and start squeezing every dime out of the name, quality nosedives, sons are suing the firm for forcing them out

PE firm is now broke and has filed bankruptcy due to almost exclusively owning things that inflation kills sales for

Decent chance the firm will be forced to sell back to the brothers either as settlement from the lawsuit or bankruptcy
