Anyone know anything about these reels?

When Cortland first came out with the Embassy reels 8 or 9 years ago,
they didn't have much in-house metal fabricating capacity, and they hadn't
yet acquired the STH reel company, so they farmed out a lot of the
manufacturing process to the Harley Davidson plant in York Pa. At least
that
is what the Cortland rep told me back then.

That's interesting. I've lived in more or less close proximity to Harley
plants for most of my life and never knew that they made parts for anyone
else, let alone someone in an entirely different industry.

Vrooomvrooom.

You should have been here summer of last year. On the last night of the
rally I could here them cruising the Lake Michigan shore, over seven miles
away......and this in an urban environment with no shortage of background
noise.
