Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies On January 21, 2015, Cobalt Boats, LLC (Cobalt) filed a patent infringement lawsuit against the Company alleging that certain of the Company’s Sea Ray branded boats include a feature that infringes a Cobalt patent relating to a submersible swim step. On October 31, 2017, the US District Court in the Eastern District of Virginia entered an amended judgment on the jury verdict awarding total damages, including enhanced damages, in the amount of $5.4 million plus attorneys' fees of $2.5 million and applicable interest. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses and will pursue an appeal. There were no other material changes during the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017 to the financial commitments or the legal and environmental commitments that were discussed in Note 13 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2016 Form 10-K.
