Hi I always hate this kind of thing but mindless ignorance by
bussiness people? You'd think the customer was the first concern , not his almighty buck... I've put my boat into storage for the winter at a place I've used for 3 years with good results. but This year they had me sign a policy statement that they were allowed to move peoples stuff around without consent. Also , the usual thing about damage -- its not their responsiblity. I put my boat up for the winter about 10 days ago. I placed the boat tongue on a concret block with a wooden piece of 2*4 under it. The guy at the place told me that the "wind" could affect my boat unless I put it close to the other ones. I went back on Saturday and found my boat , pushed off to one side about 4 feet-- the tounge on the ground the tarp ripped and one of the chocks about 3 feet( the left wheel ) below from were I left it. All I can determine is that the guy used his pickup truck to knock my boat over about 1-2 feet. In the process he knocked my boat off the concrete block onto the ground. I guess customers are treated like sh#t cause I signed the policy. Can such storage yards justify owner vanadalism with their discalmer policy? What really gets me is that this guy is moving my boat 2 feet to make space, yet he has a 65 year old rust bucket truck and about 34 feet of rusty pipe next to it taking up about 6 car or boat lengths that he could easily rent out and make money by sending his "junk" to the crusher.. What is your opinion ? I know I won't be going back -- very poor busines practice - knock your customers items around with your big powerful gas guzzling pickup. this guy is an accident waiting to happen and in my view very bad for business. |

IMHO- take him to court. His new "contract" probably won't stand up against
his obvious abuse of your property. Take lots of pictures. "kruliczek" wrote in message om... Hi I always hate this kind of thing but mindless ignorance by bussiness people?
