the power of oso rules! im sure someone at searay saw this thread and figures jay leno would be using searay shingle jokes in the next few days so they had to trade you out to spare national embarrasment, or they may have decided you riding every where with a big fat girl tied to the bow would tarnish the companies reputation! congrats on your new new boat. what are you gonna do now that you won't have a fat girl for company? BTW you may get an email from a girl named sally, i saw her at a bar last night. i told her about your problem and what with her wieghing 285 and all, she was looking forward to boating with you alot! good luck , ratman

Sarcasm by demand?? Ok.

--I guess if that boat has shingles.... it never had chicken pox when it was younger.

--The hardest part about doing shingles is the tear-off.

--Maybe they didn't use an edge strip on the end?

--If shingles are the new thing, will an Owens Corning race series be far behind?

--If it is a crappy boat, will you name it "*hit on a Shingle?"

--If shingles are good, would slate tiles be faster?

--On a wooden boat, do you use cedar shingles?

--Does that Sea Ray dealer do windows and siding too?

It's great to see Searay step up and do the right thing. You couldn't have asked for more.

They started as a casket company, and the owner was a man named Connie.
It was uphill from there.

That's great news! Nice when things work out. Like Cuda says, you could'nt ask for more.

The shingle most important thing here is that Sea Ray stepped up to the plate and replaced the boat.
What I was wondering was what kind of roofing nails they used. Do you need stainless nails if you are in salt water or would good old galvanized nails do the trick to hold on the shingles seeing as they gel coated over the heads afterwords. ?
