Ladies of the Forum, please.........

.......forgive my "french".

< Edit: No actually, I won't. Consider this a formal warning! JK>

Why the "****" you lot keep giving Manos a had time is beyond me. I'll tell you something, if you posted derogatory remarks about me in the way you do about Monos, I'd come down on you like a ton of bricks. Perhaps it's beacuse he's a 1000 miles away others are just around the corner ! Grow Up.

Oh my Meme i do love it when you get all forcefull on us

Besides Gloucestershire isn't a 1000 miles away, in actual fact its not that far North even for me and if those pics were taken in Gloucestershire i shall have to visit the place pretty damn quick i think

So to start the bidding i've just put a bid on the Falcon, to think i may be the new owner of a Orange Beany special very soon

No frankly I wont. Why should I accept you swearing at me?

If you posted the amount of bovine excretia that Manos does then I expect you would get the same amount of piss taking that he does. For that matter if I did I am sure I would. And I'd deserve it too.

Thanks for support MeMe.
Just let all 'THE EXZPERTS' express their 'valued' and 'very much respected and appreciated' opinion even if they are in Canada
They know everything, done it all beforfe, much better and much more than every body else. So they 'know'
And yes they've done it all in their sleap or in their garage or in their bathtub creating bubls
So let them express themselves. They just feel happy critising things that they cannot even dream of doing or having.

Let the 'EXZPERTS' be happy in their ignorance

If you posted the amount of bovine excretia NOT EVERYONE WOULD AGREE WITH YOU - I FOR ONE DON'T

piss taking I'M ONE OF THE FORUMS FOREMOST PISSTAKERS, HOWEVER I DON'T CLASS YOUR COMMENTS AS SUCH. THEY ARE DEROGATORY AND OF A PERSONAL NATURE.
Anyway............

Sorry, didn't mean to start an argument by starting this thread. I would still have posted it even if it wasnt one of manos's boats. I posted it because I thought it was a relatively cheap starting price for 6m and effectively new boat. Although these falcons are cheap to by they dont appear easy to sell on. Can't really comment on resale values or depreciation because I dont know how much manos paid for it.





PLEASE DON'T LET THIS DEVELOP INTO A SLAGGING OF FALCONS THREAD, THERES BEEN ENOUGH OF THAT ON HERE AND ITS NOT REALLY FAIR ON THEIR OWNERS OR FALCON THEMSELVES!

ADS you shouldn't appologise. You just mentioned/reported something you saw. And that is fine. Is the EXZPERTS that should.

Any way to calrify a few things.

We sell the boat £2K less than we bought is as described in the advert. The actual price is a few K more but I had got a discount for ordering a few boats all at once. The selling price also covers the transport costs to the UK from Greece.

The reason for selling it is that we are buying four new ballistics 780s from SA (bigger boats) and for tax reasons and only for that we must sell at least 2 of the older boats.

Nothing to do with resale value, depreciation or anything like that. Hope that this clarifies matters.

Manos, from what you have posted previously you have had a very busy charter season with all the boats hired out. You are also selling some of your fleet with very low hours.

This is clearly leading people to assume that you have either exaggerated the amount of charter business this year, or that you are not being truthful about the number of hours on the boats that you are selling.

There does appear to be some confusion here and and I wonder whether you could straighten things out so that we all understand properly?

Thanks
John
