Japan doesn't have level flotation requirements regulated by the USCG in the United States. Those small boats would not pass the requirements in the USA which is why they are not produced here. We were targeting a small boat with a 40 HP limit and the project for eliminate because of aluminum boat competition and pricing. BCB

It will be one year soon and things at Bass Cat remain the same. The tempos turned up some and the same staff is all there. New hires that came in are local to replace some of the family and natural turnover. There has been and will be no new staff from the partner company. Thing here are status quo, as was other than busier. The only staff addition has been Jason Bragg to National Sales Manager as Rick was filling the role of handling field reps. Cody Blair (CPA) is the in house Controller and was hired to replace Dee in her exit. Rick remains for many years in his agreement to operate the company and move things up as the goal is to grow. Lisa Jones was brought in about 6 months ago to manage Parts, Shipping and Service, upon Zach's decision to exit. She continues to grow while her staff does also. Allan, Richard and Mike handle the phones there. Stuart remains to be the Production Manager, Jason Brewer is still the in house BCB Sales Coordinator. Ivan Williams continues to be the Yar-Craft Brand Manager after it was puchased in 2011, with production starting in 2012. He also handles BCB house accounts in KY, OK, AR, MO and the Northern/ Midwest territory. Yes, we are now one year in and things remain the same, just busier. BCB
