About the comments I made on a recent 18' 30th Anniversary Classic sale. I jumped the gun and basicly accused the new owner of under-handedness.
I received an e-mail yesterday that simply had 2 words on it. "The Snake"
I welcomed the opportunity to hear the other side of this story as the only one I had at the time was that Steve from Canada had put a deposit on this boat and was sending payment for it when the seller sold the boat to another buyer.
While I still feel this was wrong by the seller, I was wrong to accuse the new owner of also being a bad person and taking advantage of the situation. I offered the new owner if in fact that is who sent me the e-mail an opportunity to report his side of the story. I would have been glad to retort my comments once hearing the other side of the story.
To the new owner of this Classic (Scott Bonnett?), I apologize to you. You bought a rare and very beautiful Classic.I hope to one day meet you and your Donzi. I've seen a number of things taken the wrong way from these boards as I may have done in this case. I hope you'll give me a second chance. I'd like to be one of the first to welcome you to the Donzi family. I hope the boat brings you and yours many happy hours on the water.
