Damn, I was about to place an order with them. Crap.


I know how you feel. I always like the sleek, Euro-styled lines of
the boat bunnies in their advertisements. High maintenance I
understand.


They updated Bertram when they bought it - gorgeous looking boats.

A few years back, there was a Ferretti 510 at the Norwalk Boat Show -
got to walk through it - simply unbelievable workmanship, gorgeous
interiors - beautiful boat.

I agree with you on the styling which is why I like my Ranger so much
- the curved, gentle sweep from bow to stern and the elegant moderate
Euro transom - it's a good looking boat and gets a lot of compliments.

Oh damn - now I'm thinking about keeping it again.

DAMN YOU EURO STYLING!!! DAMN YOU TO HELL!!! :)

Note: I have to figure out a way to sell Mrs. Wave on the idea and
that is going to be a problem. :)
