That statement has been there since October of 2006.  If you email with questions someone does answer them.  I have done it several times.  They state that they are going to reintroduce the Aquasport line as a more family oriented boat with less attenion to the fishing aspect of the design.

They were asking for comments back in December.  Several people emailed that they would like to see the Aquasport go to more of a fishing aspect.  And some people mentioned they would like to see and inboard for a gas or diesel engine,  sort of like the new Albin 26' center console, with a larger rang for fishing.

I was told this by a guy at, I guess Genmar.

Said it would be two years before we see anything.

You mean like the newer Grady Whites?

Not familiar with the Grady white line.  

Unfortunately I deleted the email.

I did a search on soundings magazine and saw some information there also.

Wish I could tell you more but I can't.
