Oh, one other thing. The local Power Squadron and/or the Coast Guard
Auxiliary will do free boat checks and let you know what needs corrected.
When you pass they issue a sticker which you then display on your boat. The
local Coast Guard and Sheriff's Dept. tend to leave those boats alone unless
they are doing something wrong. This saved me several head aches and maybe
a ticket. They do not report (as far as I know) when a boat fails or why,
but they do keep a record of the inspection. When something fails, they
will give you a chance to correct it and then they will re-inspect. They
came to my slip one year, and another year they did the check while on the
trailer. They are great people and can help you have a better boating
experience. This should help sooth your anger and make sailing fun for
you....and calming .

Sorry if I seemed too harsh before, but your attitude was just wrong. Maybe
mine is too.

Gee, based on your email msgs, maybe you ****ed off the Coasties? I see
you
finally answered my question: Cleveland. Glad you are there and not over
here.

As far as the Bill of Rights, I doubt you really know it. This news group
is not your private domain to abuse, is it? Go ahead and pay for the ad
in
the paper. That would be a more honorable attitude.

I do not buy the bit about them forcing you to pull the boat out of the
water due to wiring, unless maybe it was due to the shore power wiring
being
wrong. They do get testy about that, but I have not seen them do so
except
at the dock when someone was trying to hook up to the shore power with the
wrong type of cabling.

In any case, take your venting somewhere else, please. Sharing the
details
and facts with us would be nice, but the ranting from you sucks.

I will post when I feel like it
and if you dont like it .. tough $h1t

And due to the bill of rights I will post it as often as I see fit.

And maybe I will take out a full page ad in one of Cleveland
newspapers.


The US Coast Guard flagged unsafe electrical wiring
in other words somone used hosuehold ROMAX instead of "marine grade"

In more detail... I was stopped for a random inspection while leaving
the flats. The "Coasties" forced me to pull the boat out of the water
right then and there.

Big $$$$$

I have had the worst experience with Mr Greg Group
He surveyed my sail boat and missed several things that the US Coast
Guard flagged as unseaworthy.

When one pays a Surveyor several hundred dollars to survey a 45 foot
Hunter, I do not expect a surveyor to catch everything but what he
missed was unacceptable.

DO NOT USE Great Lakes Marine Surveyors!!!!
Ever
