my mind is very open - allways willing to try new things - however,there's certain things i won't experiment with - one of them is fuel tank coatings,and the installation procedure i follow...i stick with what works,and what's accpetable to me,after all,if there's a problem with it - i gotta stand behind it...
just because a "well respected builder" uses it,doesn't make it a good idea,or the preferred method - i've seen plenty of "well respected builders" do some really stupid things - proline is a good example,i replaced a transom in an older proline - the core was CDX plywood stapled together,and pieced,stringers were the same material - not good huh ?
grady white is another - their cockpit deck hatches are supported by the fuel tanks - against codes - is that a good idea ? is that a good method ? their scuppers are under the waterline - depending on the load in the boat - no positive shut off - again,ABYC codes state that's wrong -is that a good method ?
get the point here ?
guys that are "in the buisness",like ol' don herman,and myself - see things in a different way than guys who are doing pojects in their backyards - don't read any disrespect into that,if you guys make a mistake,no big deal,you're gonna do it again,a follow a better procedure - "in the buisness",it's a little different - get the point ?
yep,i care - i hate to see people make a dumb move,i give "the voice of experience" - i try and save you a step - the "step" being,making a bad decision,that's gonna cause a problem down the line...
there's a great movie - pulp fiction - great line "a sewer rat may taste like pumpkin pie,i wouldn't know,'cause i would never eat the filthy motha *@#*er"
i'm open minded,but not that open minded...
