It would have cost Charter Cats $30,000 to do the right thing. I wonder how much sales they have lost because they "fecked" these two over.
One wonders, doesn't one? What's even sillier, is that they could have probably offered less than the "right thing" and still avoided major ire. "Hey, gosh, you're the second owners, you've put a ton of wear on the boat, heck, let's split the bill." would probably have kept them out of trouble. The thing that's most galling, when you read through this stuff, is the absolute absurd stories the builder starts slinging around as time goes on. That's "We don't even want to pretend that we might be wrong, or might have some responsibility here"

I think this was all they were looking for. IMHO these two might have fared a bit better if they didn't try to threaten with "bad press" on the web site until it was absolutly clear nothing was gonna happen. Then again, I'm sure they were pretty frustrated with the kind of response they were getting from Charter Cats.
