(IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Went through Overtons to order one. They said two weeks. Three weeks later they said manufacturer out of stock and will not make more for two months. Three months pass and get call that it would be another six months before production. Knew at the first backorder I was getting the kiss-off. I found this hard to fathom from such a global company such as Solas, but it turned out to be true.
Especially you guys out in the west - know anybody in the Biz??? Trying to locate one sitting on a shelf somewhere. J |

Thanks hippie, this is what I was looking for - - there are only 17800 boat shops listed nationwide - -
Anybody else have any good contacts please pass them on, in particular shops which deal jet boats, high-end jet pumps and such - I will try the above tomorrow. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) |
