Specifically, the Company is pleased to report that its intensive employee training program which began in late November 2023 has concluded with employees now having commenced boatbuilding in the Company's new manufacturing facilities in St. Stephen, New Brunswick.

Throughout the suspension of manufacturing operations, the Company's dealer partners have remained supportive with over a dozen additional dealers having expressed interest in the Limestone model lineup and Limestone's outboard power configurations as capacity increases in the months ahead.
