Default Re: dry weights new 23cc vs old hulls

I was referred to this site by a friend who told me he had seen a post about Metan. A lengthy conversation about Metan had ensued a few days earlier and he was quite appalled by what i had to say about the quality of the work. I fish a 23' with a 225 yamaha outboard out of stage harbor and he thought my input might be of import to anyone considering bringing their seacrafts up here because i was going to have a rebuild done by the guy and am glad i didnt. A board troll, ive never heard that. I was just giving some "been there done that knowledge" for you guys and if you doubt it, bring your boat up here and deal with his hassle; but be advised that someone told you first.

Cape Guy,

So advised. Now get over it, please.

Understood (a bit better)...

Capeguy - I fold my cards, you're right, I'm wrong. I don't know what else to say [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img] but I'm really over it now. I found a way to get passed it.

OK, let's try this again, welcome to the site, how the hell are ya? [img]images/icons/tongue.gif[/img]

I seems to me that we should invite POSITIVE comments and reccomendations on shops or persons that do good to exceptional work.

If you don't have anything good to say...

Hi Gents-

I am sorry but I had to add my two cents on this Metan Marine issue.

First of all, if someone has had a bad experience with a vendor, I think they have the right to air the dissapointment here. I don't think this site should try and protect a vendor by trying to censor negative feedback on their work.

On the other hand, if there are customers of Metan Marine out there who have had positive experiences, let's hear from them as well.

In the end, the quality of the work coming out of the Metan shop (either good or bad), will be the ultimate judge.

If any of guys are really considering work by metan please come by and check out my boat before hand. I live 1/2 hour away from him. And I will give the whole uncensered story. And by the way I have nothing to gain or lose by telling the truth.I just dont want to see him deface another classic.
