Nothing at all, in fact I love progression boats. I'm currently job seeking and just wanted to see who else was in this area. Unfortunately Progression and Superboat are just too far of a commute.

i would try a fiberglass repair shop local to you....You would probably learn a heck of alot more working in a glass shop than at a boat builder....

I would try a boat builder local to you...You "will" learn a heck of alot more working in a rigging & seatrialing, trailering/cradling, fiberglass composites/resins, boat sales/boat shows, marine finance & insurance, procurement/purchasing, customer relations, hull/deck/interior design, much, much more networking with others in the biz, expanding your resume, etc..., than working at a glass shop...

He had a lot of refurb boat work in the NJ/mid Atlantic area that he was spending a lot of time on plus most of his recent builds were going to Canada so he made the move back to NJ.

Did not know that. Talk about a long history of boat building, probably does not get any longer than the Sutphens. I always liked the Rum Runner 26. Where did he move his shop back to? What town?
