Mike - Hope you don't mind me meddling here, but I sent an email to Scott Porter regarding this thread and your disappointing treatment at the show. I can guarantee you that Scott cares, and hopefully he'll see to it that you get taken care of by your local dealer. Anything to get another fellow Formula owner on to the water....

Chuck, Scott sent me a message asking me to have this looked into. Jon Earl is tearing down the Miami show and probably bugging out later today, but I left a message on his voice mail asking him to follow up.

Mike, Scott Porter wanted me to be sure to make you aware that we are trying to work something out for you. Let me talk to Jon Earl to get him on the job. I have left a message for him, but don't expect to hear from him until tomorrow (he is in the midst of Miami teardown/bugout). Someone will be in touch.

Mike,you are out of my territory so I really can't sell you a boat but we have 6 353's in stock,500's 575's, boxes or not,etc.Come to Alabama and we can run one or all of them, anything to get a nice guy in a Formula.I just bought Dan's 382 Pace Boat,no cabin but pretty tricked out,also bought Joe Shank's F-1 271 yesterday. E-mail or call if I can help. Robert

Great! Karen and I will look forward to it. We live on Smith Lake,300'deep,500 miles of shoreline, so boat demos are easy for us.Keep in touch, Robert
