Guys, I just spent an amazing 2 hours going through the factory tour here in Orlando. If you are ever in the area, you need to make a point to do the tour, and ask for Dave Hendricks to be your guide - he's been there 18 years and knows the place inside and out. It only took a short time to see the pride the workers take in making these boats. Many of the employees have been there for 10, 20, 30 years. I think I may have met one of the oldest. He started at CC in 1961 when he was 18, oversaw production of the first Ski Nautique and now is one of the inspectors of the many inspectors they have. The new boats are beautiful, but I still like the older ones and you can tell that many of the older employees do too. It was refreshing to see so many people taking pride in producing a quality American product. There are grumblings about the electronics on the new boats, but overall, these things are as solid as a rock.
