Re: what would you do? (boatme)
So, what are you now seeking in the deal? I understand the frustration, but did the bill go over $1000? Are you just looking to vent?
Sorry to hear about the problems.

but if he would have been there iinstead of going to a poker run sean it would have happened at his dock and i would have had the opprotunity to tell him fix it or come down off the price I understand nobody has a crystal ball in boating thats why you have final seatrails which wasnt done.

Re: what would you do? (boatme)
Would I have taken the boat without a final sea-trial ??, yes if the boat was never even started since the first sea-trial. If I went to look at a boat, sea-trialed it and made arrangements to purchase it, I wouldn't expect the owner to continue to use it, if he did, then yes a final sea-trial before handing over the check..

Re: what would you do? (boatme)
I re-read the posts in the other thread and IMO you did not come off as any scumbag or anything bad. It did state that you never owned a high performance boat (which was incorrect), but other than that it was a pretty mild post. If I were in your shoes, I too would have been out to correct the problem(s).
Not sure why Marc posted the original thread. He too may have been better served by dealing with the issue 1:1. Lessons learned by all.

It always bothers me to hear about deal where the party's involved are not completely satisfied. I guess I might be called a square for hoping that any kind of business deal should be a win wiin situation. Best of luck to all party's.

Re: what would you do? (boatme)
i agree ms kitty, its between marc and me, yes your right i had to call mike back I had no idea mike was an owner how would i have gotten his name. the receiptionist told me mikes name, cause marc was the owner.....even marc says we take the marina over tomorrow. and another guys says your a dealer know so your reputaion is on the line too... i dont make these things up. Its the truth. and the truth is overcomming what marc says in his blog. Marc cant say im lying either the pics show that a motor ws not ran till it blew up or siezed its was idleing on a trailer the same way it would have been at his dock or the warfs dock.

Interesting
I posted the original posting back in august 2006 because i was interested in other peoples opinions on how to handle this
I was under the impresion that fubar had only owned cruiser style boats If i was wrong about that i am sorry It is what i got out of the conversation from him but was not an intentional misrepresentation was what i understood
Apparently I was wrong about that
The post never was a slam on fubar I was asking others for honest insite and opinion yet he now seems to have decided to attack me
By the way
Yes i did send him a check for more than $ 1000 to cover PARTS
