No, he's right. If you aren't driving away with a boat in your rearview, you shouldn't be paying 100%. If the shoe fits, wear it but don't be offended. It is what it is. I'm not saying 100%. But why would a builder invest a large amount of money in an order and possibly get stuck with it? A builder...

@ 200. not enough for damage.

Maybe the them new aluminum dddb can get it up. :lol: :lol: :lol: :stirpot: :salute: :rebel:[/quote It turned out to be double trouble. I got a call mid day while I was at the Judges camp. I went to the landing and picked up the two guys and went to the boat, then to camp for supplies. Another man ...

I don't feel sorry 1 bit for these people that get screwed over. If you are that damn stupid not to do some research before handing over your money or paying for a boat 100% up front then you got what's coming to you. Your a dumb ass and deserve it! Quit being a cheap ass and looking for the cheape...

Like Tony said on another thread a builder who wants 100% payment up front ought to be avoided. No one should pay any more than 50% for a deposit in my opinion. To order a boat, make full payment and be waiting a year or more is not a reasonable situation. If someone claims to make 12 boats a year ...

Be constructive and be courteous! Example Post: Hey I am thinking about having a hull built by Kwan's Extreme AC Performance. Can someone who has had a hull built by Kwan send me a PM (private message) on their purchase experience. Thanks a bunch! Whitebear is this acceptable? :thumbleft: At one ti...

Why is this not an allowed thread? There are some individuals out there that are ripping folks off. It just happened to me. Why would we not want this info spread to help others avoid the same misfortune and drive these scumbags out of so called business. I, of all, agree with "zrackers". This is a...

I don't know what one weighs and I don't care I have no dog in the hull weight hunt. Me personally I like them heavy and stiff.... I have had 4 different people call me today and ask about gear ratios. Every one of them has called back and said someone else said this. So I have done the smart thing...

The first thing that I noticed is that you have to buy their tines for replacement.

I don't know there a popular food duck. I do know people say wild hogs are no good they just don't know how to process them and cook them. Now I never eaten them But maybe you just don't like duck. Ducks are not my favorite there edible but Doves quale snipe there good. So maybe you like the Limpki...

Steve; I don't have to worry about polishing MY boat. I just crank it up each Friday evening and run it through the saw grass before heading into town for a "MAN'S NIGHT IN". Besides, the ladies that I pick up are blind in one eye and can't see out of the other. They are hard of hearing and are glad...

This is a cool approach sir.

As I wrap up my night, I hear the cry of what I think is a Limpkin. They never shut up. It seems early for them but :slap: . Did some one say that they are good eating? I can't count on that. Some one said that the Muscovy Ducks were good eating. BS. I tried them 40 years ago and they are no better ...

It seems that administrative has kicked in, my last 3 posts have been deleted or postponed. Stars don't buy you every thing. Gerald, Like another post said I'm surprised your comments lasted this long. Although I don't completely agree with it, the site rules state that we can't "bash" or forewarn ...

Gerald, we spoke a couple months ago when we rode out at Mack's Fish Camp, and when I asked how the new boat was coming, you voiced your displeasure. The way it went down is a tough pill for anyone to swallow. Only thing I can say is once John and your friend get the bugs worked out, you will have ...

Moving the front mount over 1/2 " did not work. My friend came to camp from Homestead twice and we were not able to "patch" the problem. I had 2 plates here that Billy Kline had cut out for me for repairs to my frog boat. They are 5x8". I bent a 45 degree angle tab and bolted them to my rudders. A f...

Yep, again. I'm so busy now that I CAN'T die. :violent1: If I show up at hells gate with all this luggage, the devil will throw a keg of ice water on me. :shock: Here it is 5:25 AM and I am on my 5th beer. Had a 4 hour tour this morning, worked on the boat in the afternoon, took out a 2 hour tour an...

Gerald which WaterThunder engine did you select and what prop combo did you settle on? I would welcome the opportunity to test it out one day and see how the new rig handles. LS 3 550 HP carbureted Holly 750 double pumper--- 81/83"? :drunken: Whirl wind 4 blade 2.63 Ox box The engine handles the 4 ...

A friend (he prefers not to be mentioned) of John and me, came to camp today to pin point the problem with the steering. After carefull plumb bobbing, leveling and measuring, we feel that the engine stand is more than 1/2" out of kilter. John wants to attempt to correct it by modifying the front eng...

Saw the boat this weekend. Really nice! Unfortunately, Gerald was at work but I hear he hasn't stopped grinning since Friday! That was not a grinn, it is a grrrrrrr!!! Come drive it you're self. Great performance and ride but the steering sucks. I think that the engine stand came out of another boa...

I"ve been busy but now have time. First off, the hull is great. The cage great. The rudder and rake is good. But that is where it stopped. If it were not for a true craftsman, I would have had a basket case. I welcome any experienced airboat operator to come and drive this creation for their opinion...

It don't get any more clear than that. Read it before we drink!!!
