Personally, I would rather be a floor sweeper at a job i loved than the boss doing something I absolutely hated. With as much as Dan posts, he obviously loves the boats and even if he sweeps floors, if your that into something your going to learn all you can.
If you had an employee, would you want one that was a veritable sponge, wanted to learn as much about the buisneess as possible, wanted to do the best job for you possible and busted his azz, or would you want a guy who clocked in, said the boss was an azzhat, took long lunches and did just enough to keep from getting fired?
If he bugs you that much, dont read his posts or block him. Or do you just enjoy having something to biotch about??

I couldn't have said it any better myself. Some people on here as well as other sites feel that they need to bash others to make themselves feel better. I have known Dan for several years now and I would be very surprised if any one out there knows as much about performance boats as Dan does, not just outerlimits but all makes and models! Remember this is OUR sport, so lets all keep this from getting personal.

This post is about 51' boat for sale, not Dan. I could careless either way for or against Dan, he has rubbed me wrong in the past, and I think he means well and is passionate about the OL product. I do agree with you Phantom Chaos, he is not an expert, but he is learning, and maybe he will one day be a reliable and valuable source for performance boaters to get information.
If you want to know about this particular boat, as was mentioned in an earlier post, call the owner-builder of OL, and just ask the current owner of the boat forsale. That pretty-much addresses who to call for questions regarding the boat(s).
PS Both boat in this threads, in post #5 and post #9 are very nice looking boats. I would be proud to own either boat.

If he was my employee......I'd make sure he was not posting company related business on business related sites unless AUTHORIZED. If that is/was the case (and Mike is aware of it), then it's all good. I don't think that's the case since Dan's not an advertiser status or commercial status. Get it? He can be a great employee for OL while NOT posting his "opinions" and limited experiences on OSO as "expert".

Well then, why don't you call Fiore yourself and ask him about dan so you can get rid of the ants in your pants and rest your weary mind. While your on the phone with him you can discuss your position as Outerlimits new marketing director, so situations like this will never happen again.

How do you know he's not "authorized" to post? I assure you he does more than "sweep" the floors and mike is more than aware of his postings on OSO. Looks and sounds like you have a hard on for Dan. You know what they say when you ASSUME, right? Makes an a22 out of U N ME. Guess this saying was wrong... you're the only a22 in this case
