Just my personal opinion but I think they got into the marine market at the wrong time. Several years back they purchased evinrude, alumacraft, Manitou, and a couple others. The marine industry has taken a pretty hard blow along with the economy in the last 5+ years and they are looking to stop the bleeding so to speak. Can't imagine what's left of alumacraft or any of the others has been profitable for awhile now. The dealer i purchased my xpress from had been a alumacraft dealer for decades and switched brands not long after brp took over. In his own words brp was too hard to work with and the quality tanked so he went looking for a new brand.
So he went with xpress and their sorry trailers they put under their boats?
I hope so more Alumacraft boats means better pricing for us, more competition!
Low-information voters
Price gouging is left wing speak for the left wing moves to increase energy prices.
Don't forget white river marine. Think they manufacture boats with atleast 8 diffrent brand names now.
Their Mako line has gone from bad to worse and the hulls are delaminating on their owners, they also make Tracker Boats and those have issues with sprayed in foam that sucks up water, from where I sit the quality of boats has gotten worse along with the price increases way too high! Not sure where this industry is heading but afraid is can't be good!
I have a ? Who is BRP ?
The old mako before white river got ahold of them were good boats. Sadly it's not just the boating industry this is happening in.
I think they use all Mercury.
Ok thank you I didn't know . I have Alumacraft boat and 2 evinrude and a Johnson motors
