How else would I learn that peeing on my boat would preserve it? :lol:
But on the serious note, this thread turned out to be a clasic example why forums loose good people. We lost TONS of great, educated and very knowledgeable people from this forum just due to totally unnecessary offensive and BS posts. I guess some people either never learn and some feel sense of accomplishment (in a negative way).
So, let me get this straight. I happened to experience a problem with a brand new dink which costs tons of money. The boat is under warranty, so I asked AB to help me but they told me to get lost. I decided to share the experience with my fellow boaters to alert them that they might be facing the same issue with new products AB started producing, despite the fact that they were known as one of the top brands in the past. I also hoped to get some ideas from more experienced folks on how to address the issue.
Here marches in Rick with sarcasm and and total BS criticism, which adds ZERO value to the tread and the issue at hand. What's your agenda here, Rick? Other than messing up a perfectly good and for the most part helpful to many people thread and pissing of some folks you've accomplished absolutely nothing. Again, what's your agenda here if your posts offer no help?
When you were messing up the Flotilla thread last year, I thought that maybe you were trying to be funny and I just didn't get that type of humor. But, with few other and now this thread I don't see any humor at all. What's going on?
Ah, no wonder something was telling me that it's all X's fault. :lol:

I had no intent to be sarcastic in any of my posts and only dropped you a word of what I thought was prudent advice (which of course you completely ignored like every other piece of advice anyone ever tried to give you). You might want to consult a legal advisor if you intend to continue making remarks about companies, that have no factual basis, in a public forum.
Now, had you done your normal research to the 99th degree, quoted 47 different publications and web sites, complied 13 spreadsheets, asked everyone's opinion on this forum and then ignored every bit of that while drawing an incorrect conclusion, I might not have commented at all. (THIS is sarcasm).
To each his own. You and Mr. Shafer do not own this forum, although as of late, you do seem to be the self-professed expert on EVERY subject.
I hope you get the problem fixed. Woody and Dale's explanation seems to be the most intelligent one offered so far, but, I am at a loss as to how you are going to support that position, short of a metallurgical analysis. Now, if you made nice with the folks at AB instead of dragging them through the mud here, you might stand a better chance of success. But, that was not a route you elected to follow.
Best wishes.
