I doubt the people who work for the Ukrainian company who manufacture Elling inflatables see the funny side.

Hi Dave here owner of Boatworld, normally I do not get involved with the to and froing of the forum, but I see the issue of Elling Boats crop up from time to time.
Elling are a small family business from Mariupol in the Ukraine.
As I am sure you have seen there has been terrible artillery shelling of this port city.
I did have an email from them on Sat informing us they were being shelled but nothing since.
I trust the group will support and pray for all of the Ukraine.
Boatworld is hopeful that in the middle part of this season we will have limited supply of the Elling KB 350 model.
Please check our website for updates , which we will post as and when we know more.

See you very quickly edited post #300 Kong.

When one makes mistakes I have always found it better in life to own up rather than shift the blame as you have tried to do, but enough trivial tit for tat.

As Dave "Boatworld" says our thoughts and support are with those in Ukraine.

Actually when I first wrote the post I thought Elling were Russian so I put the the laughing face. Then, immediately upon realising they are Ukrainian I changed it to a sad face. Unfortunately you came charging in on your high horse before I finished making my edit
