What happened to the RF Marine thread?
 

As in the title, what happened to the RF Marine joke thread?

The fire got put out by the Fountain Of Youth.

He who has the Gold rules and Pops is still around.

Shady

Thats some BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUULLCHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII ITT

biggest joke in the industry, was a bit of an exageration .. this industry sure aint built on trustworthy venders .. to say the least .. i think rf is far ahead of many .. i may be wrong though

This web site becomes more of a joke everyday. They probably signed a deal to advertise.

I actually asked for it to be removed. I have no problem with a disagreement but something quite insensitive was said about a tragedy that was not needed. I have more respect than to continue down that path.

Then delete that post, not the thread.

I took my 96 38' Fever down to RF Marine back late 2013 for Portside XR repair after hitting something in water. RF the 3rd quoted my insurance company for replacing port XR, props, and labor close to $17,000. I recently one month ago had yet another problem with same drive, come to find out RF took XR off my boat and replaced it with older Bravo 1 upper and internals. First part number on insurance quote for XR upper does not bring up any part at all (Bad # Given) and all other part numbers were for XR parts that were not used on my boat. Getting my boat repaired just cost me $10,000 out of pocket, on top of $17,000 given by insurance company. What kind of business does this?

turn it in to the insurance fraud division and let them investigate it. Give the outdrive serial number to a Merc dealer to run and see what comes up beforehand just to make sure about what was sold to you. 27 K to fix what ? that sure sounds like a lot. even for a transom assembly replacement and drive all brand new for one side.

My same question as other thread...

you are kidding right???

Not saying RF didn't but can we see a picture of the XR drive that looks like a B1? In 1996 that boat would have came with B1's if it was HP500.

Bottom line. The boys aren't Reggie. Sad. Still wish he would come back somehow.

Calling bs, or the most ignorant boat owner ever. Who pays out that kind of money and doesn't at least look at the drive for a minute and say "wow I paid a lot for that shiny black drive" or "wtf??? That drive doesn't look new?"

You didn't notice the port drive did not look like the starboard???

is this the same Fountain owner who bought a '99, only to discover a year or more later it was an '89??

They all look alike ya know. I can see the overlook. :)

ummmm,,you would have to be a complete moron to pay that kind of money for that drive... http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-2013-Mer...9a15f0&vxp=mtr

After you call it fraud there is a chance of reverse contract as to who commited the fraud?:signs069:

post proof BS meter readin loud

I remember hearing that exact quote back when Fountain hosted an APBA race (99 or 2000?). Came from Reggie himself, right after a 29 Fountain ran the kilo faster than the super-V lights were running and by-passed the crane, (so no weight recorded) and was loaded directly onto a trailer at the ramp and quickly disappeared into a shop, not allowing any {required) post run inspection.

Sad but they all play games at races all power boat races:whistle:They claimed GPS Frank from OPA rigged a race for me once for Christs sake??:479::boat:
