You know he can't be using his boat we've yet to see a picture of it this year

Seriously, how can we even know if he still has a boat?

Seriously not even sure he has a computer anymore.

IMO, The clear winner here was Sea Ray.
Anything other than a cease and desist, along with a cash damage settlement of 20 million+ individual boat fines was a total loss for Cobalt.
Expect other boat manufacturers to follow with the step since this doesn't seem to be patent protection with teeth.

That's kinda what I was thinking. I bet Cobalts legal fees was higher than the judgement.

Sorry guys - work's been hectic. Problem with computing damages is, their invention is really the latch mechanism and not the step itself, the royalty base will be somewhat limited. But, a finding of willfulness means they can be tripled post-trial, and it's really a shot across the bow telling people they will sue to protect their patents and the distinctiveness of Cobalt boats, even if the award isn't all that huge.

He's alive! We were worried about you pal.

If there aren't Russian spammers flooding the forum, I'm at least checking in every couple days

Were holding the fort down for you. Thanks for what you do on the other side as well. Get your boat out though.

Seriously man! Take a break get that thing in the water!
