theres 3 brothers that own the buiness and the Pres of the business said they're not making enuff on the Thunderstream so are sellin the molds ,they also make a Boston Waler type hull in 13, 17 and a big center console 28,30 . they 're on the ocean over here. I think they only made like 7 boats,5 for the guy that owned the Minx name and anothe Minx that they madfe themselves and then my Thunderstream. I dont know of any other Thunderstreams but he said there's more out there.I guess the econemy ditates what you keep and dont keep. No market for the Thunderstream (VKing) I guess....................

Owch! I have a feeling at that price they might have them for a while. I wonder how they do the windshields? Plexy and the heat them and form them? Hmmm... I have thought about making some fiberglass mods and make a few out of fiberglass and just paint/gell coat them black.

Anyways, Back on topic here.
