I received a randam message from Walker Bay Inc as I must have been on their mailing list:
"This serves as a notification that Walker Bay Boats, LLC is discontinuing the production of the following products effective immediately: Genesis, Superlights, Walker Bay 8, Walker Bay 10, and Sailkits. We have removed the walkerbaydingies.com website and have redirected all pages to our current website Walker Bay - World Class Deluxe Rigid Inflatable Boats
We will continue to have replacement parts available for the next 5 years.
Walker Bay acknowledges the obligation to properly inform our dealers and customers. Walker Bay appreciates and values our business relationships and looks forward to your continued interest in our products. While we regret any inconvenience this announcement may cause, we are eager to supply your future product requirements with our world-class quality product lines."
Does anyone know why they have done this? I guess they weren't making money. 5 years is a very short commitment for spares. I was looking for a 8ft RID - but won 't now I think.
Can anyone recommend a good alternative? Looking for 8-10ft rigid dinghy with sail kit option and tubs for stability? Walker Bay seemed to fit the bill - but not sure now.
