Herring as usual does not know what he is talking about, and it is a good bet that he couldn't even ask his questions properly. Tri-State does not operate one of the "bigger marinas" in the area. It has a very small marina, maybe a dozen slips, most reserved for its demo boats. It has a larger gasoline and diesel pumping service on its floating docks, and a very narrow boat ramp with a small parking lot. The organization does operate two dealerships, one in Deale, Md, and the other across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge. The Deale dealership is one of the largest in the area, and while none of the lines it sells new now has an I/0 model, Parker and Grady used to market I/O's and Tri-State assuredly sold a lot of them. The dealership certainly knows how to "take care of " an I/O. Again, I doubt if Herring has the brains to even ask the question properly, or who to ask, or how to understand the answer. If Tri-State tips up the I/O's it winterizes, it surely has a specific reason for doing so. Personally, I don't think Herring could understand the directions for playing with a yo-yo. |

Just received a third vulgar email from John H. Get help John. And please stop emailing me. I had to ask the same of you at another board with your constant vulgar and nasty PM's to me. This is not a IM board for your personal use, JimH. If you have a problem with someone, you should take it off-line to PM. Otherwise, you're part of the problem. It's also a lie. "Warp17" is starving for attention. |
