DRIFTER_016 Posted November 19, 2015 Report Posted November 19, 2015 Some pretty good info about having issues on the water in this piece. I know the company is US but the info about insurance and such is excellent for us Canooks too. This poor guy got screwed over twice in two years getting his boat towed because of breakdowns on the water. http://chrisflintfishing.com/blog/caution-anglers-freshwater-pirates/#.Vkzv4xUuHmM.facebook
leaf4 Posted November 19, 2015 Report Posted November 19, 2015 Wow that is brutal I couldn't imagine that, saying you provide a service and basically screw over a person in distress
KLINKER Posted November 19, 2015 Report Posted November 19, 2015 A power and sail squadron course could have saved this guy thousands and should be the first thing on his to do list.
Big Cliff Posted November 19, 2015 Report Posted November 19, 2015 Not that it affects me but it was well written and could save someone a pile of money! Thanks for taking the time to post the article.
KLINKER Posted November 19, 2015 Report Posted November 19, 2015 Yeah #1 don't beach your boat on a windward shore. A little seamanship would have gone a long way. In the first picture there are 2 boats out there, he should have gotten away with the cost of a case of beer. He was his own worst enemy.
DRIFTER_016 Posted November 19, 2015 Author Report Posted November 19, 2015 True. I would have used my TM to run around to the leeward side of the island.
BillM Posted November 19, 2015 Report Posted November 19, 2015 After reading that he doesn't seem very smart.
aplumma Posted November 19, 2015 Report Posted November 19, 2015 I have been a member of US boat for years and with their tow program and insurance policies they have protected me 100%. They also watch the government and advise on laws and their effects on the boaters of America. Art
landry Posted November 19, 2015 Report Posted November 19, 2015 Bad decision to beach it. But he did get screwed.
