I guess the question should have been what boats are still being produced today?! Fountain, donzi and Baja were bought by a firm a few years back, company is only building fishing boats though out of the North Carolina Plant. They haven't produced a single fountain, or donzi out of that plant in years. Also, Scarab is gone, name sold but they also have not produced a scarab in years, Guy who bought the name might hold rights but lets be real there aren't any scarab's being built. kachina is doing service but I think the old owner was forced to take it back with Louies passing, not sure they will ever recover, but they were never big to begin with. Most boat companies have been dormant for a few years now, it will be interesting to see who keeps it all alive! look at how many 2010-2011 boats are out there. Not too many. They have good reason too the price of new boats has nearly doubled in the past 15 years. The entire boat from the resin to the upholstery is a petroleum product so manufacturers saw huge increases. Almost making new boats unaffordable.
Not sure where you heard Ultra is out of business. Never stopped building boats. Moved a couple of times, but still building, just not a lot. Here is the latest 28 Shadow deck just out of the mold and a 23 Shadow waiting for sand and buff. Have a 22 Stealth and 21 Stealth on order going in the molds soon too.
