Andre,
Also, the parent company is Genmar Holdings which owns and produces a number of other boats, including: Champion, Larson, Carver, Glastron, Four Winns, etc. Most are bubble boats, but they own several higher quality small boats like Ranger, Hydrasport, & Wellcraft. Zero realy high quality boats.
The patented material used to rotocast the Triumph is RopleneŽ, a specially formulated polyethylene compound, (same basic material as Starboard), and probably has some of the same characterists of Starboard. ie: can't bond anything to it, can't paint it, can't polish it, higher expanision and contraction ratio than other boat building materials, & way flexible.
Here's another link to Genmar's tout on Roplene...
Br,
Patrick
