I hope he's insured, you know, maybe with All-state, or Prudential, or maybe with GEICO. It's always nice to have someone there for you, ALWAYS, never good to burn bridges. Good luck. I know you'll be back

Oh Lord, not a dirty horsechit bomb! They took out a Federal building with one of those!

JBS

What do you mean "be back"-we are back and badder than ever!we have amazing recorces at our disposal.Expect to see us kicking some Geico ass in St Clair!

Great news. Did you switch to another turbine supplier?

JBS

"We at Turbine Marine Inc. push our product to it's limits,and beyond.We not only test our turbine engines in our fully equipped test facility,with out in-house turbine dynamometer ,we test entire new engine systems in pleasure boats and on the race circuit all year long,on a day to day basis.This is all to reassure our customers that they are getting the most reliable,powerful and refined engine package available today."

-this is a quote from turbine marines web site and what I (and others) believed to be true

-these are some quotes from John Arruda after the twin turbine failure

-"please get a life trust fund brat"
-"I did the maintenance on your boat"
-"I don't have to supply you or any customers with any part numbers"
-" if there was a oil pressure issue,it should have shown up on the gauge and warning light"
-"I will take care of any problems my customers may have when or if they arise"
-"all the work completed on the engines,including the spare was done as inexpensively as possible,as you had no money to spend"
-" there are many improvements that can be made to the spare engine now,if you want to spend the money"
-" in my opinion you should take it the way it is,and use it with care" (talking about spare turbine)
-"the alarms are on oil pressure and EGT only"

I was never given the option to have a lesser or better quality turbine built-and at no time did a conversation take place that involved compromising the integrity on the equipment
