BlueJacket Shipcrafters
Posted by alross2 on Tuesday, July 23, 2013 6:48 PM

Jeff Marger asked me to pass this along:

 

Reports have filtered back to us that people have stated, on various modeling websites, that BlueJacket Shipcrafters is “going out of business”.

I can tell you, categorically, that this just “ain’t so”. To quote Mark Twain…”THE REPORTS OF MY DEATH HAVE BEEN GREATLY EXAGGERATED”.

To set the record straight, what was said by Bluejacket was that our owners, Jeff and Suzi Marger, are considering retirement. In order to assure the 100+ year old continuance of BlueJacket, new ownership is being considered. It is of utmost importance that the service, quality, and tradition of BlueJacket be continued for many more years, and the Marger’s will not relinquish BlueJacket until they are firmly convinced that new ownership has the same degree of passion, committment and integrity that has become BlueJacket’s legacy.

Excellent news.

Aye aye. I don't need stuff from them often, alas, but when I do, they're the best game in town. I wish the Margers much success in finding someone to carry on the tradition.

I hope they get bought by another proprietor and not some multinational distribution company that will just use the name.
