This past weekend I was out of town in the Boston area for work. I needed a small 4' by 6' piece of marine plywood replaced in the floor of my boat but do to the lack of time between getting out of college and heading to Boston I hired the work done. I found an add for an individual in the area who does boat floor repair/engine work and gave him a call. This individual came out, gave me an estimate and we scheduled the repair for yesterday. I received a phone call from my father yesterday afternoon informing me that this "so called boat professional" had drilled 3 pilot holes and "accidently" slipped his rotary saw THROUGH THE BOTTOM OF MY BOAT. This individual was relieved of his duties and I will complete the needed repairs to be able to join you guys on Seneca this weekend.
My goal is not to name names I just wanted to pass this information along to other LOU members so they do not get screwed. If you live in the Ithaca area be cautious of any adds for a boat mechanic/repair man.
