That sucks. I think I would be driving to it and if nothing else sitting aboard for the weekend.

As long as the boat arrives unscathed and sooner than later everything will be ok.

Seriously, tell them to knock off a $1000 and deliver the boat to Bert Jabin's Yacht Yard in Annapolis. They will do a great job putting the fly bridge back together and you will get to experience an unexpected adventure on your new baby. Get lemons, make lemonade.
THINK ABOUT IT. Could Be Fun. [emoji41]
Sooooo
What's happening now?
I feel like I'm invested in this adventure. Is the little lady home yet?
.We are happily moving again now. The boat is in Connecticut and the driver believes that he will be here today!
Yet another screw up.
The boat is still a day out, stuck due to a failure to secure proper escort.
It is now only 100 miles from here.
I have no idea how this company is in business...Bruce
So...
Good friends of ours live near the rest area where our boat is spending the evening.
They grabbed a bottle of wine and their dog Jack and went to visit Alan, the driver who is stuck in this Twilight Zone like situation.
From the left; Alan the driver who is trying hard to get us our boat. Barbara, our friend. The two other women are escort vehicle drivers. Jack the wonder dog and last but not least Barbara's husband Gary is taking the photo.

And while doing so they were able to check the condition of the boat. Smart move.
In the time it is taking to ship this boat you could have built a second one shipped it with a different carrier and splashed it. (Almost)
As someone posted earlier, this is definitely a "first world" problem...
It does not make it any easier to sit and wait through the stupid delays though.
Thankfully, we have a good rapport with the driver and he believes he will finally be there by mid day...
I like the idea of a second boat though, hmmmmm.......maybe one for the east coast and one for the west? I have to be careful, my wife reads these posts!

Wifey B: DORSEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Making sure she reads it. Sorry I screamed. :lol:
There by mid day? Well, yes, the question is just what day. I sure hope tomorrow is the day.
