    Lament after buying study plan

    I said I believed PAR's phone conversation story 100%. Click on his signature and his PAR Boat Plans company comes up which tells me about him. I don't think every detail someone says is right because they are a good source in general. Facts are facts and everything else should be questioned...

    Lament after buying study plan

    And you or tomas haven't provided facts to back up your claims. I think the story is incomplete and more of a mess. Neither side apparently wants people to see the actual documented facts. No links to facts on the BRI site either.

    Lament after buying study plan

    The story about him yelling on the phone I find credible. There's a business name he yelled at that's verifiable. That's not good business and I wouldn't do that. The story about him sending a nasty email because he thought the plan was bought from a competitor I find credible. That's also bad...

    Lament after buying study plan

    No definitely not. I'd have a secretary, a good people-person, whose job would be to handle customers who weren't yet paying me. My secretary's job would be to win them over. Leads are worth money. And I'd surely have facts ready to document my claims before accusing someone of something. You...

    Lament after buying study plan

    Have you found any documented facts or recorded documentation to back up your story yet tomas? You say he "sells the business". What were the detailed terms of the sale? That's the fact that's missing. You say "possibly bootleg." After 20 years, why is this not documented with a legal document...

    Lament after buying study plan

    I could make wild guesses to address your question. They'd be worth zero without having more documented facts. Where is the court transcript? What did the written contract set out for terms for the business name, the plans, and the business? Reproduction rights, IP ownership, or anything...

    Lament after buying study plan

    What were the terms of the sale is what I asked. Was there a written contract? Did it include distribution rights or exclusive rights? Was geography part of the agreement, AU and US? Were there any timeframes? It was said this was all "well documented." Where do you see the court or...

    Lament after buying study plan

    Can you post the court case that decided these? How do you read the transcript? Or what were the words in the contract that described the sale of the plans or business name? Was there anything in the contract covering exclusivity, market area/country, or timeframe or derivative works? Would...

    classic 21m US schooner NINA missing

    I hate to say it; for $500, an automatic EPIRB should be mandatory now when going more than a few hours offshore. How often do you check your EPIRB?

    Things learned the hard way.

    There's a lesson when you open up a 50 year old wall and see the 2x4 has turned to dust from a leak. And that's what was holding it together for how long?!!!

    Is the BRG BRI case transcript online? I've been trying to find the case using Google and Bing but haven't found the transcripts yet.

    Great photos. The rust gives a time scale how long this salvage has taken.

    Lament after buying study plan

    It must have been a poor contract for dispute to still be going for 20 years. If you bought a plans catalog house, wouldn't you want a long non-compete clause? Must have been details poorly done in that contract.
