    I understand it is speculation... but all of the past speculation when JM is involved has turned out to be true. It has become almost concrete. If speculation said JM was running for president, it would probably come true.

    I'm willing to bet Legend continues to be built after the purchase.

    Can't see much if any difference in Ranger since JM bought the brand. Few dealer changes but the brand is still as good as ever and selling well. I bet Legend will be in good hands.

    What is JM's motive for buying Legend? No offense to the Legend owners by any means.

    If the business is profitable, then why would they shut it down? Shutting it down doesn't mean you acquire all the market share of the company, it will get divided between brands. I would think that they would market the boat with exclusivity, as they have been, and continue to grow.

    There isn't anything posted on Legend's FB page. The letter to the dealers was posted on the Legend Owners FB group page by someone.

    I was disappointed at first but after reading both pages of the letter I feel much better. With the addition of the V series boats, Legend has taken it to the next level. It appears JM recognizes Legend as the premier custom bass boat builder. An influx of cash could go a long way in continuing and elevating the trajectory Legend has placed itself on.

    Does anyone have a sense that this is a big farce?

    Probably didn't want Randy Hopper and Company to purchase.....as good of reason as any.

    I'm betting Legend was in financial distress and this was a way out.
