Re: Alabama Boat Ban Lawsuit
Haven't posted lately as there was nothing to add yet. Just got an email from our attorney's office that the judge knows Oct 1 is the date for the ban to go in effect so he said he would rule this week on our petition for a prelimenary injuction.Keep your fingers crossed. The judge seems to be a fair man,if he reads the depositions and testimony from both sides,surely he will see that we are right. Will post again when I know more. Robert

The reporter from the Daily Home newspaper that has helped us since day one has 2 stories ready for Sunday. Their website normally goes up about 10 PM. Haven't seen what he has written yet but we are only maybe 1/2 hour away. www.dailyhome.com

Re: Alabama Boat Ban Lawsuit
When you go to www.dailyhome.com, make sure you read both stories,the headline story and the one below under "news". 2 separate articles tell the whole story. Robert

Re: Alabama Boat Ban Lawsuit
I am really dissopointed at the manufacturers. They should be fighting
these types of laws with vengence! This type of legislation has a way
of snowballing once enacted. They have everything to loose if this
gets enforced. Where's Mercury ? Its amazing that the little guy
with his limited budget has to fight these battles alone when
almost all the boats banned probably has a Mercury engine in it.
