What Jeff says seems to be the case with people that have actually called the company or ordered a boat. People that don't seem to be in direct contact with them or assume a company's well being is based on a fancy website are the ones that have the negative reports. Or maybe some of those that have an axe to grind or some reason to promote another brand now.
Or maybe they are average boat buyers used to boat brands keeping in touch with the boat buying public, hence the OP's opening question. Have to expect the negative guesses if nothing much in the way of information gets out of the walls of the factory into the public domain.
Eventually, the boat selling boom created by Covid will end and Tuffy will re-enter the marketplace because they will have to to sell boats and continue to grow, if that's the goal.
That's not 'an axe to grind' it's fact. Not once in the last 20 years did I honestly feel Tuffy was meeting it's potential, but that's another story and it was, when one really thinks about it, probably justified and still might be.
I'm proud to own a Lund and am delighted with the boat. Currently, that's the only boat OFM is 'promoting'. Easy to do... a great brand and great folks to work with. |
