Donzi, Proline, Baja, Fountain all being moved to Fountain plant.
They have started moving all the manufacturing for Donzi and Proline to the Fountain facility where they will be built side by side with Fountain and Baja. More boat builders moving out of Florida. It will be interesting to see what happens in terms of quality and development.

Who is the owner now? The bank?
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot help the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by encouraging class hatred. You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn.

I've heard rumours that Fountian was shopping the Baja line around. I wonder if the molds will go back up north. It should be interesting.
