So, has the Ficht issue been resolved on brand new models?
If so what would be considered the most recent year that they are considered
reliable?
What was the first year of Ficht?

will be very cheap on account of it having a Ficht, but ........

Just in case you come across a similar boat with an Optimax on it be
also aware that they are better but not by much. Notwithstanding they
go
about it a totally different mechanical way, the very same basic design
fault is there.



Oh? Not that I accept your FICHT numbers (yes, I remember your
"source,"
but if Opti's are "not much better," what is the percentage of their
alleged failure? Got any documentable stats, or is this another of
those
claims you pull out of your butt?

Well it was your little OMC dealer mate from the ice box who claimed as
many Optis were failing as Fichts??

I asked if you had any documentable statistics. Do you?



And what credentials do you have to pass judgment on these engines or
anything else? You don't even have a basic engineering degree. Nor have
you ever even seen one of these engines.

You are a crock, Karen. You have no original information. You throw up
here what you read elsewhere, without any idea of what you post is
true.

Well you better find just one other reference

I asked if you had any serious credentials. Do you?


You ought to carry a warning label: "Warning: B.S. Levels Lethal with
Karen Smith of Oz."

From Harry the non boating liar this is a bit rich.

Here's a paste of more of your lies & don't try denials as you did last
time they're pastes of your own lies.

paste of Harry the king of BS from 97;

Have you ever sailed from San Francisco to Hawaii? I have.
Have you ever rounded Cape Horn? I have, twice.
Have you ever transited the Panama Canal? I have.
Have you owned more than 20 boats in your lifetime? I have.
Have you ever sailed large boats competitively? I have.
Have you ever been hundreds of miles from land in a powerboat under
your
command? I have.

Unbelievable than as it is now.

To a person of no accomplishment like you, probably so.
Prove they are lies.
