I felt for the guy. I put in at Little Harbor in Newport so have some idea of what they charge. He had them build his dream boat and it never worked. Never. Dream boat = nightmare boat, especially when the eyes are bigger than the stomach and the dream is based upon magazine articles and/or other forms of mass ignorance. It was a nightmare but I understood that at the price he paid LH for a keel up custom boat he had reasonable expectation of good engineering, good production and therefore a good result. I crewed on an 85' sailing yacht which was enormously complex but engineered / designed for easy access to all systems. So when things went awry, which wasn't that common, they were easily, quickly and cheaply addressed. That's proper design. -paul --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus |
