Yup...hope he has a awesome lawyer...I know one that he could get that would fry them.

This is very sad...for a coampy like Concept. I once owned a Concept but only kept it for 1 year.

WOW...what a complete nightmare. I have been considering a Concept for my next boat since I'm done with I/Os...this has altered my thinking for sure. BTW...who is your insurance carrier? Did Concept actually have insurance for delivering boats?

as a FORMER concept owner I cant believe they cannot bring a resoloution to this!

i have heard of very sad stories regarding insurance companies in the states , some that didnt pay out in the last of the hurricanes peoples lives being ruined......i am glad that there are serious rules for insurance companies in canada
my best wishes to you for a good outcome to this nightmare
its been my experience though that the longer things go on ........

What a shame that you have altered your thinking of purchasing a concept boat just because of 1 situation. Would your mind be altered if it would Fountain, Nortech or any other boat company? Just because other companies have not posted their problems on offshoreonly does not mean that they may have had a simular problem. Don't you think!

Fountain and Nortech would not have pulled this. Period

Silence from Concept propagates suspicion. Two years and no boat or resolution is beyond comprehension. Not everyone on this site is wealthy, many work hard to meet their monthly obligations to enjoy this hobby. But to pay for two years of debt service along with storage contracts (at least for the first year) insurance et al. with nothing to show for it is preposterous. I'm sure there've been some details left out by the OP, his posts are not detailed and somewhat elusive, but puhleeze...2 years? I live in CT...how would I have confidence in Concept if they were shipping my boat from FL if they can't even settle on an insurance claim. There's a bunch of stuff that doesn't add up here and neither party are supplying the facts. But again...silence propagates suspicion.

I thought the customer posted this not Concept. Lots of Companys have problems, and some may be even this severe, however they may not be posted here or elsewhere because perhaps they are resolved in a timley manner. I only know what I have read here, and it seems 2 YEARS is a very long time, all the while being financially obligated. just my .02
What would do if the shoe was on the other foot??
I hope the owner gets to use his boat sooner than later.

keep in mind if lawyers are involved it would be wise for Concept to talk, I know they were silent from the beginning so that doesnt look good, I gotta believe there is two sides to this story, I can tell you I would be absolutely livid if It was my boat.

Wow, what a terrible situation. Concept should really think about resolving this... I know the guys at Erikson , to bad they got into this.
