This is not spam!

This is one among many articles related to sailboat designers and manufacturers. This has no more spam content than any article about a corporation or its prodcuts including: examples such as IBM, BMW, General Mills, Sony, Cadillac etc, where each article contains information on the history of the company, examples of the product, and links to the company website and frequently owners groups.

If the POV appears biased, it is not by intent; however this may be a product with high ratings from consumers and industry analysts.

Please let this stub which I have started grow and thrive. If you have specific concerns please send me a message so we can discuss your concerns. By citing specifics you can help in the rapid improvement of this article; generalities only leave a writer second guessing your objectives.

Thanks.

If there have been articles published in newspapers or magazines about this company, please add those articles here under "References". If possible, include a link to those articles. If the articles are not available online, include a full bibliographic citation.

You should save the text of the article to a backup on your own computer in case a Wikipedia editor deletes it. --TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 22:40, 22 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

I understand that the title of this article is Santa Cruz Yachts, but it is a bit confusing in that it merges the history of the company (ies) between the current company making SC 52/53 and the original "chicken coop" company that built Merlin and the SC27. When the original Bill Lee Yachts declared bankruptcy and the new owners purchased the assets, I think that was important enough to make a clear division between those periods of ownership.

Also, I have either begun or editted the Moore 24 and Olson 30 articles, and I wonder if we should be creating an article-per-boat or an article-per-builder? The answer is probably to have a hierarchy with information on the builder in one article with links to the boat models.

Thanks,
