07 April 2022 - 10:07PM
The Limestone Boat
Company (the “
Company”)
(
TSXV: BOAT | OTCQB: LMSBF) – owner and builder of
Aquasport Boats, Limestone® Boats and Boca Bay Boats – announced
unit production improvements at its Tennessee-based boat
manufacturing facility for Q1 2022.
The Limestone Boat Company Unit Production
increased more than 51% in Q1 2022 compared with Q4 2021, with
additional milestone achievements of note further confirming a
positive trajectory for the 2022 calendar year.
“Production capacity on the highly sought after,
high margin Aquasport 2300CC & 2500CC Center Console models is
on schedule to double in Q3 providing dealers the ability to tap
into the unprecedented consumer demand for this segment,” said The
Limestone Boat Company CEO Scott Hanson. “We continue to see strong
demand for our products and are focused on increasing our monthly
production to meet the Company’s large order backlog.”
The Company continues to increase its production
numbers through effectively managing supply chain and COVID-related
labor disruptions. Production and shipments are expected to
continue to grow at a rate of one-half boat per week per month,
resulting in a further doubling of weekly shipments through year
end.
Recent New Aquasport Dealers
UpdateThe Company ended March with the addition of another
new dealer, Coastline Marine Service in Marblehead, MA, to the six
(6) previously announced new dealers this year. This brings the
total number of Aquasport dealers to 27, accounting for 30
locations and 35 Dealers and 51 Locations for all Limestone Boat
Company Brands.
Limestone®
L-200R Runabout Model Performance UpdateThe
Company’s Limestone® L200R Runabout launched earlier this year
continues to receive rave reviews for its performance as quoted in
a recent performance bulletin.
“We recently held a performance test on the
Limestone® L200R equipped with a 250HP Mercury outboard and found
it to be a deceptively high performing boat,” said TN Composites
Vice President of Manufacturing Chris Smith. “It is fast to plane
with minimal bow rise, and it corners like it’s on rails. It drives
like a sportscar.”
EV Testing UpdateThe
long-awaited testing of the Aquasport 2100CC Center Console with
Vision Marine Technologies’ E-Motion 180 electric outboard motor is
currently scheduled for the week of April 18th as the Company works
to be the first manufacturer to bring EV technology to big water,
Deep V boats with performance that aligns with today’s boating
lifestyle.
