Ur part is only as good as ur mold is and considering I didn't have time to prep a plug to make a rideplate cause he wanted it I did the best I could with what I had to work with. The craftsmanship will be quality on these hulls same as my other hulls and hoods.

I asked him not to make it an hour before lunch........... Guess Bill got hungery....
It all good.
I got some other projects to work on. I have this cool 2 part epoxy gun that I need to get the glue cartridge off of. That will keep me occupied for a while... It has been raining now for like 4 days.

Screwing over a moderator on a site where you would like to sell is never a good idea.

I haven't yet begun to bash, but I could if you really want me to.
I would point out that Goose must live near the worst Post Office in the country - because I've seen countless excuses from him about things getting lost in the mail
I would point out the Team Bill poles that were sold and compared to the quality merchandise of a well known shop and were in reality not worth much more than the aluminum they were scabbed together from. This from my personal observation of several of those poles.
I would point out that BK very generously offered use of a specialty glue gun to Goose and it was not returned in the condition BK sent it to him.
Should I continue?
If it's the truth - is it really bashing?

And your problem with the quality of the poles is....? that you have to drill your oun holes and the welds werent done by a profesianal tig welder that charges 80 bux an hour??? Ever seen one break? ever seen one not turn??

I was just about to ask that to grezz. The answer is no returns... Its amazing.. One guy starts a thread about a nice boat that has a ton of potential.. and the "Jetski community" bashes. I would rock that ride plate.. I Wonder what its gonna look like after the first ride anyway.. duh.. And that gun worked great... Thanks

So the welds weren't pretty. Big deal. How about:
turn plates cut on a band saw (or that's what they looked like...maybe a jig saw)
holes that were drilled were not aligned properly - requiring re-drilling and having botched holes.
tubes that were welded but not aligned - so the pole was warped/canted with one side higher than the other.
you want more?
My "problem" with the quality of the poles was that he compared them in quality to someone else's $1200 aluminum pole & steering setup and then shipped junk. I know at least one person that bought 1 - and never used it once it arrived.
