Kind of a corny video, but still interesting to see how the Genmar-era Four Winns boats were manufactured back in the day.

Four Winns just posted a 'back to work' video, and it looks like they're back to hand-laid fiberglass. Kind of interesting, but I know those VEC machines were NOT cheap and is probably a big part of why the company went bankrupt back in 2009.

I'm sure the plant tours are on hold, if not a thing of the past. But, very neat to walk the plant as they are being made!

Does Four Winns offer (even past tense) factory tours? I've done the Regal one in Orlando while on vacation, and even not owning one, thought it was very interesting.

Not as slick as Regals setup (no showroom at the end), but I was able to call and get a personal tour for me and my family. Just us and employee showing us around.
