Creek Company's new boat.

[pontoonman]

Patents mostly keep the honest businesses honest. The Creek Co boat seems to be different shell material, different seat, different number of inflation chambers/valves, etc. Knockoffs with even slight variations are hard to stop. Only someone with deep pockets can prosecute and it doesn't help much if the offending party also has deep pockets or is unreachable in China. Better to write off as a cost of doing business, rather than feed the lawyers. Seems like your only chance with a new idea is to keep several steps ahead of the pirates, which I'm sure Dave has in his business plan...
