Darn, you guys sound pretty opinionated for not know why I wanted to
return the ports. Gee, I think I feel thratened. Actually I plan on keeping the ports. Why? Its faster to replace the deformed gasket myself and NFM says the ports are just fine. Ya, they do not seal very well. My other option is to start building up the existing hole in my boat for a smaller sized port. Just a practical time issue. I do not like grinding and epoxy builds. Over-all the ports are ok.........except for the no seal problem and the bolt through holes not aligning. So how do you guys learn anything here when the first thing that comes out of you mout is an apinion based on nothing but an emotional that lackings a full understanding of whats going on? If you want to know what may happen if you place a special order from NFM please read the other post. I think I have spent enough tiem here. |

Maybe we're opinionated because you did not tell us why you wanted to return the ports. Gee, I think I feel thratened. I think you feel humiliated. Actually I plan on keeping the ports. This contradicts your first statement, doesn't it? Why? Its faster to replace the deformed gasket myself and NFM says the ports are just fine. Ya, they do not seal very well. If it's a deformed gasket why badmouth NFM? Why not just buy a new gasket? My other option is to start building up the existing hole in my boat for a smaller sized port. Just a practical time issue. I do not like grinding and epoxy builds. Over-all the ports are ok.........except for the no seal problem and the bolt through holes not aligning. You could also build a whole new boat around the ports. So how do you guys learn anything here when the first thing that comes out of you mout is an apinion based on nothing but an emotional that lackings a full understanding of whats going on? I believe there was complete understanding on the part of the people here. You even admit to wanting to keep the ports. Your initial claims were to discredit the port manufacturer for something you are satisfied enough with to keep. Seems like the people here were spot on. If you want to know what may happen if you place a special order from NFM please read the other post. I think I have spent enough tiem here. From this thread it is reasonable for one to conclude you're a batten short of a complete sail. One does not have to imagine too hard what poor NFM had to go through in dealing with you. Dave's analysis of you was right on the mark. Please stick around. We can use the entertainment. You can use some religion too! Amen! Did you vote for Bush???? |

Hey Haggy,
Nutsy spent an awful lot of post time telling this group about the great shape his new boat was in; Why is he replacing a port before he even gets in the water? Scotty had his boat sailing as soon as he brought it and didn't need to replace anything. Seems like Scotty got the better deal at a much lower price http://community.webtv.net/tassail/ThomPage http://community.webtv.net/tassail/Pneuma |
