Your reading skills are as bad as your spelling. I am still waiting for you to refute any of the facts I listed, or do you claim to know more about the boating market than anglesedgemarine ( who's sold over 600 boats ) or the two dozen + boat builders I listed who install only 4Ss on everyone of...

I let the facts tell me which engine to buy, I don't need your biased advise. P.S. You might want to spell check your responses before you post, "beleive and shareing" ! :roll:

You want "evidence" sure no problem !!! Here's a test I found done by an independent company that verifies the poor fuel economy of the Etec. In Powerboat Reports magazine they tested three identically rigged Wellcraft 232's CC's, one with a Verado 250 hp, a Yamaha F 250, and an e-tec 250...

And you should stop critizing people for posting factual info simply because it's not what you wanted to hear. Until such time that they are disproven I will continue to post anytime someone asks for info.

I copied alot of the info I learned from his posts. I checked out everything he wrote and found it to be correct. If you've got factual info to dispute any of it I'll be glad to see it, otherwise it's just one E-Tec owners opinion. He was the only one in those discussions that stated the true...

Of course anything related to boating isn't an "investment" as you suggested, boats are a depreciating asset period. It's going to be very tough to sell a used boat with a 2S on it, especially when all the same models have a Yamaha 4S on it, the 2S will sell for alot less. Like I said, check...

The E-Tec does get worse fuel economy than a 4S of equivalent hp, according to independent tests I've seen it comes to about 2 gph or so. The oil is outrageously expensive, over $ 30 a gallon for the XD-100 was the cheapest I ever found it online and I've seen it go for $ 50 a gallon retail at...

You bring up a great point about the outright rudeness and nastiness that's allowed to take place over on THT. It's not just limited to discussions about GW either, it frequently happens on many other topics as well. Ultimately it's simply about the money, running a fair forum that allows...

A permitting service can be great help. Check these out though I have no personal experience with them. http://www.mercurypermits.net/ http://coast2coasttruckingpermits.com/ http://www.boatus.com/pressroom/release.asp?id=633

Alarus, my second guess thanks.

Fish Tank is that a Liberty XL2 ? Nice plane !

Your description really nailed it, IMO GW has really fallen behind Pursuit and it shows up most in their bigger boats. My dealer told me Pursuit got help from sister company Tiara to design the 315 and 345 and the quality speaks for itself. The helms and visibility are the best I've seen on...

I noticed several other boat builders had much smaller displays compared to previous years when business was better. Understandable but they're not going to sell what you don't advertise. When GW, with their deep pockets, cuts back times must really be bad. It was still a fun show and I bought a...

FYI, there are OTHER people that read these threads besides the OP and the info I provided was VERY relevant to the topic of blistering at hand. I never said nor implied he bought the wrong boat but you just did actually. I mentioned GW's main competitor DOES warranty their boats against...

I've bought another boat since then Sherlock - makes you nice and jealous doesn't it !! Out of respect to the OP and this forum try not derailing the thread next time, it's called following the forums rules.

Of course I remember, I'm looking at it on it's lift right now. But like I said, I own more than one boat, remember ?

I own a couple of boats, how do you know what I have ?

Where's your proof ??? You do realize how ridiculouos YOU are making yourself look by saying that don't you ?

Pretty silly point cause Pursuit warranties their boats against blistering and doubt they would if, as you said, blistered in 2-3 weeks !

Well said, for the prices that GW charges they absolutely should be using vinylester resin in the outside coat of their hulls and also warranty them against blisters. To get them on such a new boat is just unforgiveable. I don't believe GW warranties their boats against blisters, but I do know...
