rocki Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 why are they not building for the 08-09 season? does anyone know when they are going to start again or if they have any prebuilt for the season???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elkrivermn Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 I was calling Jay about every month since last march. He said they were busy building docks. I would not have thought that with the economy being the way it is people are buying that many docks. You would think there hs to be a little more to the story here, just my opinion. I was really looking forward to buying a 16x8 house. Last week I said to heck with the house and bought a new lund boat instead, now I am looking to have my perm house at Agate Bay either moved to my home in Big Lake or moved to Appledorns or another resort on the south end of the lake. It is hard to justify paying over $600.00 for something I only end up using 4-5 times for the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harvey lee Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 The are a well know business and do a great job. They could easly be that busy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northlander Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 I can tel you 1st hand the reason Soderblooms isnt making drop downs as of now is they are that busy with docks, props etc. They are a small 2 man (at times 3) operation and just dont have the man power to be doing the numbers of projects they did in the past. Im sure in the future they will continue but right now they are trying to catch up and even maybe get out to wet a line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windy Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 I talked to Jay last week and they are super busy but he said it is starting to wind down with the docks props etc. He figured he would be starting on my fish house within the next 2 weeks.

elkrivermn Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Let me know how you like Jays skid houses they look like a nice setup also. The only problem I see is I bought a new Can Am Outlander quad last year and the aluminum trailer I bought to haul it is 8'x7' so I have no idea how I could trailer both Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
