From what I have seen on here, most of the calls and emails that WERE NOT returned are from owners of older/used boats. (And those are the ones that sometimes need the most help.) I know personnally, that I have called 3 times on different occasions and left messages for Bud regarding paint codes and other infofor my boat. (None of which were returned.)
Again, I'm glad they stepped up and I hope it's a sign of better support from Cigarette.

I have seen a change though in attitude recently?? My father who was irate after the first purchase and said he would never do this again, did. Could just be me though. I do though how that this is a better sign from Cigarette to all though. We are a small community of boaters. They aren't just a run of the mill powerboat.

It would be nice to have someone there for people who don't get to be around the gang. Good luck with everything.

Re: CRT Steps up to the Plate
Tim G. Hopefully I meet you down there sometime in person when I am in the area. When we are down we go see Skip and Neil.. I think it's awesome about TSG knowing the guys for so long. I have only known them for a few years and feel like I have known them for ages. I wish you the best! Good luck you are with a great company.
