Trick Marine Closed?

I have been trying to reach Fred about a backordered item and the phone has a message they are closed 11/6 for store inventory, and then hangs up.

Tried all week ...... same message even today .... does anyone know if everything is OK over there?

No matter what the issue that's not a good sign...

I really like Fred, we've chatted numerous times in the past when I ordered parts etc...

But nice guys aside, there's still a business to be run and food needs to be put on the table.

I hate to hear these problems, I've bought alot from Fred, even though its taken 3-4 months to get product. Sorry to hear he is out of business, he's had a couple of tough years, good luck to him.

Same message again today. I'm not assuming he is out of business but it sure seems strange the phone system is a 2 week old message and hangs up. If anyone hears differently let us know ... I hope it's just a temporary situation. Great stuff and good guy to deal with.
