Defender Powerboats Inc Owners Forum
Hello OSO Nation,
My name is Phil Vargas and I am trying to get my company, Defender Powerboats Inc. in the "OSO Owners Forum"
Some of you might know me, some might not. I have a thread on the "Chief" forum called
"21 Scout Making a Comeback" The thread has over 48,000 views and is mostly comprised
of my boat build from gelcoating of the molds to the ongoing progress of my upholstery of the boat.
I have made several request to the OSO moderators to add me to the owners forum and transfer my thread
so other powerboat enthusiasts can enjoy and give there input but I haven't had any response to date.
Recently I became a Platinum member and sent emails but to no avail, no response, no feedback and
no information from any moderator on how I can be in the Forum. I am a retired US Military serviceman
with military tours all over the world and yes Iraq, Afghanistan as well. I don't mean to toot my horn about
my military service but if I can put myself in harms way for my Country and it's citizens I don't see why
I can not enjoy my retirement years boating and living my life without being disrespected
and ignored. I might get kicked off OSO for writing this but at least I know I went down fighting, the
way I wanted to go when I was in the Hot Zone. If anyone knows how I can get into the Owners Forum please let me know.
Thank you,
Phil Vargas/President
Defender Powerboats Inc.

It's a big man who stands up to fight for the good of his country and fellow men. Nothing can ever take that away from you. As Interceptor said, I doubt there is any disrespect from the forum but they should answer your emails/messages. I too wonder if there is the number of owners and followers to support an 'owners forum'. By definition, such a forum or thread belongs to the boat owners and you may not have the numbers to justify on oso.
With due respect, the owners of oso are running a business and they need to take care of things, looking after their customers and advertisers (us) but not forgetting the almighty $$$. If the support base for your request is sufficient to create a friendly, informative and lucrative addition, I would think they will pick it up.
Just my 2 cents worth but whatever happens, it's no reason to loose interest in your hobby and business of Defender Powerboats. I've had a look on Facebook and Defender Boats look great, any likelihood of a website in the near future? Could be a good tool to promote more awareness.
Good luck Phil with Defender and enjoy you well earned (semi) retirement!

Good luck Phil
You build a great product and you help remind us of how many started with smaller boats and then grew into larger and larger boats, as our incomes grew.
I am sure that you be granted your request. Hang in there.
