Mercury outboards!! Who would want one of them? By the way, I just retired my 1985, 150hp from my V20 after 22 years of service, and the VRO pump still worked. ;). Yep, replaced it with a 150 hp Mercury saltwater series. Sorry Schools, Mercury works for me. ;)

The company that owns Van Staal reels, also owns Zebco.
Does that make the Van Staal a lesser reel?

I think not.

So what are yoyu saying, you like Bayliner and Merc's now??

Read it again.

I'm saying that I don't have to like the Zebco to like and want a Van Staal. Now apply that logic (this goes for everyone else because we all know MJ knows no logic) to the large boat holding companies. I don't have to like the Bayliner to like the Edgewater. They are not even remotely the same. They are not made in the same facility. They are not made with the same materials or build specifications. As with the fishing reel holding company, the large boat holdings allow the different manufacturers to operate as separate entities. There is a defineable market for the Zebco reel as well as the Van Staal. The same is true for the Bayliners vs. Edgewater vs. Searay vs. Rybovich (hows that for a tangent?)

Clear enough? Now, I've got to take my meds! Someone might get hurt in the morning! >:( ;) ;D
