I'd like to pass along an email I got from Ray Curry at Burr Yacht Sales concerning the incident at the Annapolis Boat show so many years ago: > Dear Mr. Phil Eslinger > My name is Ray Currey and I work with Burr Yacht Sales the East > coast Fleming Yacht dealer. > I read your blog the other day and can say I was very sad to hear of > your experience at the Annapolis Boat Show. > There are no excuses, and all I wanted to say is I am sorry and I > hope you will accept my apology on behalf of Burr Yacht sales. > All the best . > > > > Ray > Burr Yacht Sales > J. Raymond Currey III > Office-410-798-5900 > Mobile-410-320-3300 > Ray, Thanks for taking the time to write me. I appreciate it. Fleming is an absolutely gorgeous boat. Had I not been planning on a circumnavigation, I think that Fleming would have been at the top of my list. My experience was in the fall of 2002 and, as such, was a very long time ago. For you to acknowledge and apologize for something that happened so long ago tells me that it was an isolated incident from a quality company. Phil Eslinger Flat Earth N50
