![]() If anyone thought you had an ounce of integrity you might actually sell something with a pitch like that. Hey, man. It's your money. If you think I'm anything but totally professional outside of this forum you can contact my yard and see what they think of me. If you need sails and want to pay more...that's up to you of course, Dave. I have no hard feelings towards anyone here and don't earn anything but good will from others my making such an offer.

If anyone thought you
had an ounce of integrity you might actually sell something "Capt" Rob wrote Hey, man. It's your money. If you think I'm anything but totally professional outside of this forum you can contact my yard and see what they think of me. Funny you should say that. Early this year, a friend of mine wanted to buy a boat in your area and called this number you gave. When he mentioned getting you to take a look at the boat for him, the person answering the phone laughed.

If Bubbles actually had a good deal to rpesent on sails, he could say something like "The sail loft I'm working with offers a basic quote of X $/sq-ft, call around and see if any others will beat that." Instead he just has more dumbo bluster. He'll probably say "bwahaha" at some point. There are a number of people in this forum who have bought sail in the recent past, and by their accounts have done well enough that they don't need advice from me on the topic; and certainly not advice Bubbles.

![]() Even you admit you are an ass in the forum. Who would do business with an ass. It is too bad you have lost your credibility. This is something you will never regain. Capt. Rob wrote: Hey, man. It's your money. If you think I'm anything but totally professional outside of this forum |

![]() Even you admit you are an ass in the forum. Who would do business with an ass. That's true, Bart....but we've spoken on the phone, have we not? I don't think either of us would say the other is an "ass" in the real world. You sounded like a nice guy, you told me of your superior sailing experience and I respected it all the way. If I had some kind of terrible rep, my yard would not keep me around. Those guys are Italian and take no crap. That's the real world. This is ASA and we all let off steam and blow smoke and so on. A few folks like Doug and Sloco grandstand and want to pretend that this is a "serious" forum for sailing. But you know as well as I do that there is little real traffic here with our small group of regulars. In 10 years I've been spotted by someone outside of ASA while doing business exactly one time. It didn't hurt the sale. Folks here troll plenty....but if Scotty could save me money on a camera, I'd take him up on it...if he offered. I know you have some kind of relationship with North. I also have one with Doyle. But this new deal is special and the quality is higher for less money. Turn-around may be slower, but reasonable for off season. If you really think I'm such a bad person in the real world, then forget it. No problem. I made the offer and that's that. I'm not making the sails or even measuring for them. I'm not even a middle man, in spite of Gilly's silly trolls. RB |

That's good, considering that you apparently have no clue what the black bands are for. Don't forget... Bubbles, you're nuts! DSK |

Who's the first guy too jump all over someone for selling stuff on the group? Who's the first one to say that people shouldn't criticize his "sailing" style because it's an individual thing and there's no "right" way, and then turns around a lambastes someone else's sailing operandi? The list goes on nearly ad infinitum. Cheers Marty |
