Leopard gestation

Matt,

Instead of poncing around with fancy cutlery couldn't you have asked them to pull their fingers out and get your new vessel ready for the summer instead of half way thru?

I'm only jealous!

Don't know that thet's a long wait. We looked at the Cranchi's at SBS and the earliest delivery they can offer is Oct 2003. And that for a mass produced bog standard boat with no extras or alterations.

BTW what's the point of a manufacturer trying to sell prodn that far ahead and discount prices? Why not jack up the price a bit? Got me beat, I wouldn't do it would you?

Re: Certainly sir

It's due end March/April 2002, instead of June 2002. I will have to have arrange for a large party, and colin can show us his sock recovery technique. Anyway, the cutlery is the Main Feature.

Well the booze cabinet should be really full with IPC winnings by then, unless of course it's already included!
