Default Brunswick Closes Two More Boat Factories

Brunswick announced that Baja Marine will be sold to Fountain Powerboats, and their operation at the plant in Bucyrus, OH will cease in May, causing a loss of 285 jobs. The Ohio plant will be the seventh boat factory Brunswick has closed or planned to close since 2007. Here's the article.

Also they're shutting down one of Sea Ray's factories in FL.

They blame the downsizing on a bad economy and a struggling housing market. Sure is sad to see...
