So billionaire owner, quadrupling sales, flying around in a 20 mm helicopter and the only new boat we have seen was a Doug Wright with stickers (and that didn't even work out)! Now we have "all new merch" yet it is just the same stuff with "all new higher pricing!"
Their new tag line should be: Cigarette all "Smoke and Mirrors" since 2021!
I've never seen a boat company so hyped up about the next chapter (yachts, jet skiis, tee shirts, hats).............YET WHERE ARE THE ACTUAL PERFORMANCE BOATS?

need demand to increase prices. see previous post regarding the need for cig sales and clearances to sell thru mechandise.
my guess is Harley Davidson started small. Saw a huge demand for gear and couldn’t keep items on the shelf. There marketing guys sat down and said “wonder if we could upcharge for this crap and make a fortune”.
Cig is in the early innings…apples and oranges in my opinion.

Deleted post, I agree why the negativity.

I gave it 5 pages!
I'd think CRT was a well oiled machine, not sure how much time they would need to ramp up production but then again Bud Lorow bailed and they canceled their dealership agreement with their largest dealer so they may have some hiccups going on.
Best of luck to the whole company, no matter what product they are planning on producing!
