Uhhhh...why would it get deleted?
The only rule against self-promotion is keep it in one section.

Hey Ducky...I'm in the same business. I'd like to shoot you an e-mail and compare some suppliers as far as gelcoat and metalflake... :idea:

Way to go Ducky. Good luck to you and your new venture. I think there is enough word of mouth around here even if it does get deleted. :mix:

What's up Ducky , don't tell just this :squiggle: The boat thing, you got that happening yet or what? I have been waiting to see it done :coffeycup .......( . )( . )........

Hey Congrats....do you guys pick up and deliver? :idea:
I can pick up and deliver to/from your home or storage unit if the boat is not too big. (Say under 30').
To Ratso, feel free to contact me any time.
And lastly to Kimmy, thanks for the kind words....
PS, Unfortunately my Banshee project is on hold for a while. Look for some updates on that project about the end of next summer.

DUCKY... you might want to put some parameters around your pick up and deliver service before gomers like Hoolign make you regret offering. :D
By the way, congratulations. :cool:

What's your 'deal' on keels? My 32' Fountain has been on the sandbar and the channel too much? I need about 9' done. Can you also R&R motors, to reseal my (offshore) water pick ups? I can bring it to you the second week in DEC. PM me with prices and I will make an appointment. Thanks.

Give me a call, or send me and email with your number and we can talk about it. A 23' re-gel is a great project for the dead of winter.
And Todd, thanks for the info. I'll give him a call. I am always on the lookout for a good supplier.

DUCKY, why don't you swing by Hoolign's place and give him an estimate? If he likes your quote, you can just take the boat with you.

Actually I am working on a "Winter Keel Special" right now.
V-Bottoms $299 and Tunnels $499
Of course damage and color restrictions will apply.
And Yes, I can R&R your motors. I have a 15' tall engine hoist in place and waiting.
We'll be in touch.
Thanks!

Shouldn't take very long at all. A few days maybe. My shop is on Countryshire next to the Mitsubishi Dealership, and south of Boat Brokers. I don't have the shop phone setup for forwarding yet, so you can call me on my mobile if you like. I'll PM you the number.
Thanks,
Scott
PS, to Hoolign, I think you can understand that there are reasonable limits in place as far the pickup and delivery service. I think a 25 mile radius is fair.... You're just a little outside of that! :D

Has anyone noticed that the Political Forum has begun to resemble the Bench Racers Forum lately? :2purples: All anyone does in there is insult each other. :hammer2: .......no civilized political conversation?!!? :confused:
On the other hand, it has kept the personal bashing down on all the other forums, they just all go there and slug it out........... :eek:

I turned out to be Scott's fist customer. I dropped my boat off last Saurday and picked it up today. Scott's work turned out great. He fixed a couple of scratches in my boat and buffed out a couple of other spots. He stored the boat in his shop and met me ther today when arrived in town. When I need any gel coat repair again I will be returning to Scott.

Yeah, It's too damn cold to leave that back door open! I was probably there, but, I did do a bunch of running around last week hunting down materials, etc... If there is a green Nissan Frontier, or an old blue Honda Accord with 17" wheels out front, then I am there.
I just got back from the light parade. Talk about cold! I thought I moved here to stay warm.....
See Ya!
