    I must say that we as members have to be careful. I put a thread up about springwood marine that turned out to be untrue and i had egg on my face. I would say that this could be a rumor or they might be downsizeing etc(satisfaction marie). I know it seems the marine game has a lot of majors problems but as members we need to get behind these retailers not only for the business owners but also the workers and also suppliers. I have leart my lesson and i would say to all ausfish members to support there local dealer etc. After all the more that go by the way side the more expensive boats etc will become as the one's left will not have the competion.

    Re: gone

    So... what would happen if your boat was in Satisfaction Marine's yard when the liquidators came, getting a service fo instance??

    My Pommy mate here informs me that the boat becomes the property of the liquidator, is this true???

    I think your being a bit hard maybe if more people purchased oz made boats we would be better off after all it is basicly the yanks that have got us in the poo. And were is your boat made again.

    Re: gone

    shanec, if the boat is in getting a service then your not going to lose your boat to liquidators... you own the boat. if they took that, they would be stealing from you.

    i'm sure they would finish the service, charge you as normal and off you go.

    why am I being hard? If my business fails it is due to only one thing..my incomptetence at managing the business.
    My boat and the previous one were both made in the USA. Why? Because far better value for money than the local boats. I don't run a charity...I buy what suits my needs and value for money...Oh but obviously you do not realise they were bought through Aussie dealers and obviously serviced locally.
    How did the yanks get us in the poo...anyone that is in the poo is because they are living on borrowed money..ask Eddie Groves what happens then. If you have nothing on credit then there are no problems.

    Re: gone

    or are you suggesting that everyone who has a mortgage cannot manage their finances, therefore they dont have the right to exist?
