Jacobs' Marquis Yachts set to ramp up production
With J&D Acquisition's purchase of Carver and Marquis yachts complete, the company was renamed Marquis Yachts LLC and Robert Van Grunsven was named president of the Carver Yacht and Marquis Yacht companies, chairman Irwin Jacobs announced.
The Pulaski, Wis.-based company plans to begin production within the next two weeks and plans to ship its first newly-completed boats in early April.
Jacobs told Soundings Trade Only he expects to bring back 100-200 employees "pretty quickly."
"I know we've got orders already for some boats, so they've got to bring back people who work on those lines and specialists who work on that type of product," he said.
