Some stories are best enjoyed for their entertainment value. Accuracy of the details may be beside the point.
Well, maybe that's how they did it 45 years ago when things were well 45 years younger.
I think you just nailed it Delta. I know when I bought my boat way back in 2002, It was perfectly natural for the owner/seller to be present at the survey.
I don’t get it why putting the recommendations on the table is such an ethical violation
This isn't even a close call. This would be the same as an accountant advising his client on tax issues in the presence of an IRS agent.
About $20 USD at Costco in Ensenada. Maybe not the legendary stuff, but damn fine rum. Whattya say we hoist a virtual dram, bury the hatchet, and move on?No offense here folks but just going back and reading the original post and some a bit later will clarify a lot of this. Matusalem was the original popular rum of Cuba. The event I talked about was roughly 35 years ago not 45. In the 70’s and 80’s Cuba was shipping ( I mean in waterborne ships wood cases of rum with cocunut straw packaging ) to Russia and the Eastern Bloc.. I was on Turks when one hit a reef spilling hundreds of cases many of which floated gingerly to the beaches.
It still amazes me that I can post a true story, in about six replies everybody is jumping to and responding to one characters false allegations and the original post is buried and apparently never reviewed again to check for accuracy. Some say it’s the nature of these forums but I suspect there is more to it.
