Do You Think A Jury Will Convict Me?
I am about to go postal trying to get my boat ready for the Emerald Coast Poker Run. Have had my boat moved to Mobile AL for a company to touch up some fiberglass, wash, compound, and detail the 1st week of June and was to be completed in 2 weeks. Well here we are the last day of July and they should have it ready Monday. I traveled 3 times in the past month 4 and half hours one way to inspect the boat and show them what a crap job they where doing. Now it has to go to the electronics store for all the other upgrades that could take 3 weeks. Looks like I'm screwed for the Poker Run and most of the season.
No replies needed I know what I did wrong, my point for the rant is when you are spending a large amount of money with these people get a contract and have a stipulation that if work is not completed on time there will be a monetary deduction until work is completed.
I guess I am too trusting but after all I have gone through and additional money paid I will not make this mistake again.
I hope I can make the last run of season.

Thanks, just trying to pass on a little wisdom so the same thing might be prevented with someone else. These businesses need to be responsible for their actions.

I had an old college professor explain it simply : A Contract can be viewed as an Equilateral Triangle...one side being dollars, one being scope of work and one being time of completion. If any one side changes then the other two have to change to keep all parts equal.
Any agreement must contain clear language, agreement and understanding of all three basic elements. Without the 3: basic elements understood and agreed to...you end up with a "Cluster Fuk" LOL
Good luck with this...live and learn.
