Yes, in Northern Michigan we have a Four Winns plant. It was on the news last night---they say they have orders for new boats, and are going to continue to build boats as long as they have orders.

Yeah, the Sea Ray plant here on Merritt Island is down to working a couple of days every other week. At least that's what I heard.
