Its not that I cant do it but I wont on principal and the 23% interest rate they want they can go jump in a ditch!
So now the $ has worked its way up almost another grand in finance fees and documentation fees and administrative fees and all this other hokey Bullchit!
This plan offered wind insurance on the boat too which was nice but im just getting really frustrated with this whole florida insurance thing. Maybe its time to move back to PA and pay a normal insurance company a normal rate and use the boat a few months out fo the year and that will be that.

We toy with the idea of moving out to maybe Ft. Lauderdale or Islamorada or something. But that is one of my main concerns.

Total Dollar is taking care of me, John Posey has my back, Finalizing a few details that are minor and that hurdle will have been taken care of. Have not gotten down to the boat in the last few weekends since it rains every saturday and sunday. Going to try again tomorrow but weather permitting. Hell I have not cut my lawn in 2 weeks from all the rain, its nuts. That also reminds me I need to talk to Bill soon to see what the status of Fort Mazzoni is!

Re: Houston we have a problem over !!!!!
No John is the insurance agent, No one wrenches on my boat but me PERIOD. If I need help then I get Herb Stotler on the phone. Oh holy one would be the only one I would contract for "boat stuff" Herb "engine Stuff" if it was something I could not do myself but so far for the most part there has not been anything yet.
And yes I damn skippy would tow my apache to PA for Ike to work on it and then Tow it back to FL.
Thats Loyalty and trust for ya right there in black and white.

No mark not interested, this is a relatively minor problem not requiring 40-50 grand worth of engines thanks though
