Interesting news with Marque Star, and they have definitely popped up onto the radar screen lately. At this pace, I will have to do a company spotlight on these guys. lol
Now will all this activity transfer into an actual increase in market share and business for the companies involved? Who knows, but when I see folks making all of these types of high end business moves, someone is reading the ‘Tea Leaves’ and getting ready.
They also bought a pretty beefy boat called the Archangel Michael, and for their sake I hope this doesn’t turn into a MacArthur venture for them. We will keep our eye on this one. –Matt
