Did anyone else see this article? http://www.tradeonlytoday.com/home/514357-jury-rules-against-mastercraft-in-design-lawsuit
"A jury in Butte County, Calif., found Tuesday that MasterCraft was 80 percent to blame for injuries a woman suffered in a wakeboarding accident five years ago on Lake Oroville and awarded her $30 million"
The injuries suffered by the ladies that were wakeboarding are pretty bad but you do have to wonder about the boat design. The driver is responsible for 20 percent of the judgement. I wonder how a company like Mastercraft can even absorb that much of a payout and stay in business?
