after all these years i have to hand it to lee,you really do keep the dream alive,so much so that you believe it yourself now.anyway i think it was proved you were a splasher years ago,but funny how it keeps raising its ugly head. good luck with sale,how about you give steve baker 50% of the sale price,so you can have a clear consensh,and make an old man happy.

That's Maltese Magnum. Not a Scarab. But yes, those are the original pictures from when it was in his yard.

I think its very wise of you to refrain from posting anything further considering you've just libelled him...

I wonder I wonder...
If one accused another party of Libel, but this was unfounded, would one be guilty of Libel oneself?
Like I say guys, it's pointless to argue with it - you're just encouraging it

"anyone who wishes to buy leeway will have a guarantee that its debt free and making profit... "
Really? A guarantee.....? My local contact who works next door to the unit said there were two briefcase carrying 'suits' looking for the proprietor at the yard recently, rattling the doors and it wasn't the Chuckle Brothers - like the man said - 'caveat emptor'
By the way this isn't libel (written) or slander (spoken)
Incidentally how is it possible to confuse a mass produced American Scarab with a classic British 1960 powerboat - has no one read the 'Sonny' Levi biography or watched a re-run of Miami Vice ? Come on people, it's time for pastel jackets, rolled up sleeves and dodgy footwear to make a welcome return (and the Scarab would never fit into the unit from my recollections)

my contact who works in leeway "me" has not seen the chuckel brothers or the men in black. I can say we are not the only company in the yard. Yes I do give gaurentee "no dept" I'm happy for any contract to be drawn up saying if dept was to pop up i would be accountable for it.
I don't usualy hold a job for more than 2 years but after a good living for the last 9 years from leeway Its time for me to go. Unless it doesn't sell then I'll be here for longer..
Thank you all for the posts and please keep them coming as I'm recieving interest from this thread :0)

Excellent response. That should silence them!
Just one example from the pm's I have received regarding this thread is as follows,
"I do admire your comment re leeway , there are a lot of arseholes who contribute here, but would never have the balls to start a business let alone be in a position to sell one.
Hope your keeping well "
Obviously I shall not reveal who wrote this pm.
You have many supporters...best of luck with the sale.

I'm surprised you quoted someone swearing. It's a little hypocritical,given your usual stance as the Guardian of Pubic Morals.
You don't do PM's either, remember...
