GBW Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 (edited) Anyone else see this on FB? "Share the HECK out this!! Just got my boat back from Trimmed Out Boats..word of advice ..dont use them " https://www.facebook.com/george.pearn/posts/1594631850560916 Edited May 26, 2017 by aplumma no mock cussing please
GBW Posted May 25, 2017 Author Report Posted May 25, 2017 Yeah I know eh?!?!!? Maybe they are a new secret weapon when beaching a boat to attach it to a log on shore...
porkpie Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 Well that's something you don't see every day.
LittleWorm Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 OMG, if I got my boat back in that shape ( if I had o boat that is ) there would be a serious problem. First call would be top my lawyer as I would be suing his a$$.
fishindevil Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 :asshat:yes I seen the vid on FB and I would be going ballistic .....that's unreal for sure......
buick14 Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 How much did u pay? What exactly did u have them do? I watched the video but with no sound wife's asleep Nice oversized screws for the latches lol
leaf4 Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 Yeah that's brutal... The guy paid 4k up front, it was 7 weeks late as well as the work being terrible. Also he was supposed to be getting vinyl floor not carpet
Fishwilly Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 OMG I'm so anal about babying my rig !! I'd be livid. ??Maybe he's right about the owner being a crackhead lol
grimsbylander Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 I saw this last night when my friend shared the video on FB. I think I was have called a lawyer as opposed to the commentary in the video but I can certainly see why he was upset. I'm wondering how the exchange went when he picked up the boat? Would you not normally inspect it and then pay the balance? Maybe I missed that part...but yes, I'd loose my mind. This Trimmed Out Boats business advertises on Kijiji all the time.
buick14 Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 Ya im interested to hear the story about when you picked it up ? I assume he was not there, and left it outside for you to pick up I watched it with sound. Royal pee off I'm mad for you

Royal pee off I'm mad for you I'm don't think the boat owner in the video is anyone on here or the OP....was it???
buick14 Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 (edited) ^^^^ ahhh ok gotcha, makes sense with his opening statement and lack of rant lol . It was early lol Edited May 25, 2017 by buick14
Musky Plug Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 The screws through the hull, how did that happen? They looked like the icing on the cake from all the other work that was done. The guy who did the work sounds like an absolute beauty.
buick14 Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 Hahahah I wonder how many times this video has been emailed to him through his kijiji ad !
LeXXington Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 Yeah that's brutal... The guy paid 4k up front, it was 7 weeks late as well as the work being terrible. Also he was supposed to be getting vinyl floor not carpet 4K Up Front there's your issue. Bet the business has the name changed before the end of the week
Headhunter Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 At least he could have used the stainless screws through the hull, so they won't rust! What a buffoon! HH
Tjames09 Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 someone posted in the comments the boat before: Dunno if thats actually a before picture, but its posted in the comments that it is.
PUMP KNOWS Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 Here's the quote on facebook... Jamie Shields Look bud, don't tell me to show compassion!! Actually don't tell me to do anything, If 4000 meant anything to him he would have asked around, read reviews, seen work that was done bye him at his shop, any other place would have been 6000, he was just horned up to go boating, cheap as possible, if something is to good to be true it probably is, pretty sure he's failing to show the state of the boat before, he says it's worse I highly doubt it,
leaf4 Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 The previous condition of the boat should have no bearing on the finished product. If it's a gut job then so be it
GBW Posted May 25, 2017 Author Report Posted May 25, 2017 ^^^^ ahhh ok gotcha, makes sense with his opening statement and lack of rant lol . It was early lol Yeah no not me or my boat. It was all over my FB feeds yesterday is all. And yeah if it was a gut it and rebuild then that pic is null and void as the owner was paying for a rebuild the way he wanted it... vinyl and the screws he provided
DRIFTER_016 Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 Yup, I saw it. If it was my boat his shop would be a smouldering pile of ash today with the owner nicely BBQ'd in the middle of the pile. This is why I'm glad I have the skills to this kind of thing myself and don't need to rely on others.
mistaredone Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 That sucks! ive calmed down over the years but I can't imagine how that pick up would have gone. $4000 hard earned dollars.
buick14 Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 Man I'll take the before picture and $4000 What is unexplainable is the screws through the hull. Even the crappy cuts, how much harder is it to take a little extra to complete the cuts properly ? I mean the boat was junk before, but come on. Take the extra day towards the quality , and charge him $200 more . How you could let that leave your shop like that is beyond me. The screws through the front really give me no sympathy to trimmed out.
Pigeontroller Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 (edited) As bad as that job is, who gives a $4000 deposit for a job that shouldn't exceed...Dare I say $4000! And who doesn't get some references in this day and age??? I would want to see some prior work before I let someone redo my boat. And if that company was anything at all they'd have a real website instead of just a FB page! Thats why I spent all winter doing mine, I wouldn't trust anyone else!
