I started doing some research and found out that Milan boats was a small company in Eugene, Oregon, USA that shut down around 2007. Only a few boats were built during that time and you will not come across many of them. The whole set of moulds was up for sale and a guy in Queensland, Australia decided to buy them.
He too, didn't have a lot of luck, and the company he was trying to start went bust due to the GFC. He then sold a pair of moulds to another boat builder in Queensland, and Adam, from whom i am buying the boat borrowed another set of moulds to pull a hull for himself, that in the end, he decided to sell.
Long story short, I am now the proud owner of a brand new Milan Boat !!

I also have a very nice Milan 210 GT cuddly cabin that I purchased up in southern Oregon.
ReplyDeleteIt’s a great boat. Even in rough chop it glides through with no trouble at al. I’ve had many boats over a 40 year span, and this one is my favorite.
