95 wordsAll Latest News, Manufacturing, Statewide NewsSarasota (Fla.) Herald-Tribune: Sarasota’s Chris-Craft Corp. and its owner, Iowa-based Winnebago Industries Inc., have big plans. The blueprint for increasing the number of boat models Chris-Craft offers, the size of its plant and its workforce are about the same as they were before the recreational vehicle manufacturer bought the boatmaker in June. In fact, those plans were part of the reason it was an attractive acquisition. But the capital that the publicly traded Winnebago, with a market capitalization of nearly $1 billion, can supply to fuel Chris-Craft’s progress can make those plans happen much faster.
