  • @rumblechick73

    New sub here after I saw your podcast with Zingaro. I'm absolutely blown away by the response from Outremer to your accident! I'm a huge fan of Exquisite's service plan, but I'd have to say I'm not sure even they would have gone this far. Even granting that the expenses are likely to be covered by the other boat's insurance, the remarkable willingness to go to the drawing board and completely design a solution knowing it is only going to be a "temporary" fix just really is impressive.
    Fair winds and following seas for the rest of your adventures...without all the drama so your viewers and yourselves don't have any more anxiety attacks.

    @robertlaird6746 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Wow, that's a whole lot of work, parts and man power. I'm guessing that the bill will be at least $150,000.00 USD for everything including the new carbon fiber cross bar in two years. Is that about right? The job looks perfect and your new cross beam is nice looking but I do like the carbon fiber one better. What a happy and fun bunch of people that helped you get it all done and bravo for Outremer for taking care of you like they did. That's above and beyond service!

    It’s wonderful you can continue. Sail safe and continue your delightful journey.
