This morning I did a friend a favor and delivered a 23 foot Aquasport
CC for him, did the delivery and took the owner out for an orientation
ride up - the usual delivery thing.

As it happened, my RC400 handheld chartplotter had failed to do a
software update and just locked up. I was going right by the
Raymarine facility in Merrimack, NH so I decided ahead of time to stop
in and drop it off for service saving some postage and insurance.

I walked into the facility and the receptionist took my information,
got on the horn and in less than five minutes, a technician appeared.
I explained the problem to him, he took my unit, said he'd be right
back and presto, five minutes later he comes out with a brand new
unit, makes the paperwork swap and I'm on my way.

Now that is service.

Either that or they know it's a piece of crap and don't want to mess
with it.

Hope, for your sake, it's the former.

Still an optimist, eh? :)
