He denies that the boat ever left the rack and hung up on me.

If you can prove it only ad 4 hours on it, take him to small claims
court - it's obvious he used the boat while it was in his custody.

First if what your saying is true, you need to retaliate in a way that
gives you and other boaters satisfaction. Blast the Marina name every
where that you can, next do not pay the asshole, next sue or threaten to
, that's a bit of a motavator down your way, next go boating and reflect
THAT'S BOATING.

But that does not solve the problem....it is only being retaliatory.

BTW: Sorry to hear about your problems Eisboch.



















But then again, folks who can afford to buy his and hers 48+ foot Grand

swimming pool) deserve some grief once in a while. g

Methinks you have a couple of us confused in your mind there Jim. But -
thanks for the thought anyway.

When I first got off the phone with him my emotions ruled and I was ready to
call F.Lee Bailey.

After a while, though, more realistic thoughts emerged. First, I can't prove
anything regarding hours (although I have several people who know the whole
story). Bottom line is it just ain't worth the bother or effort. Sometimes
you have to accept the risks you take and accept the results. Having run a
business for many years, my gut feeling is that his is not long for this
world anyway.

Too true.

Hey, it all comes out in the wash. When the bad karma is accounted
for, he'll be relegated to working his way back up the vertebrate food
chain for the next couple hundred lifetimes. :)

Do your wife and children know you're talking this way? Sounds a bit
cosmic for your ilk.

My ilk? As in type or kind? I'm typecast as not being capable of
understanding a foreign concept like karma?

Bummer....

My wife and children are leftist commie pinkos. Good people and we
are all one happy family, but they are what they are. And I am what I
am - Cosmic man - truly cosmic.

i would file a complaint with the Attorney General Office and then with the
better business burea. You might be able to get him to cover the cost of the
repairs .Atleast anyone can see if he has a mark against his business when
checking up on them.

by a shady boat storage marina in Florida.

A year and a half ago I trailered a new Scout Sportsfish 202 from Ma to
Florida and decided to store it a rack storage facility near Jupiter
Inlet.
It turns out I never used it in Florida, however I did check on it from
time
to time and paid the marina to clean and detail it a couple of times.

The boat had 5 hours on the engine meter (Yamaha 200 four stroke) when I
took it to the storage place. I never took the boat out.

Last week, I had my nephew pick up the boat and clean it up to sell. He
just called me and told me:

a) The boat has a waterline mark on the hull from sitting in a slip on
the
ICW.
b) The engine meter now has 23 hours on it.
c) There is some minor damage (2-inch deep scrape) on one of the sides -
something that
would result from a failed docking attempt.

I called the storage place an hour ago and happened to get the owner. I
asked him if he could explain why the engine now has 23 hours and has
minor
damage.
He denies that the boat ever left the rack and hung up on me.

Fortunately, other than the minor scrape, the boat is fine otherwise and
the
engine runs fine. But man, does this crap **** me off!
