I am deadingod, only with a new email address. I was in discussion about a wooden tornado with a gentleman in the u.s. Things did not go wrong, it's just that my timescale was out a fair bit. This is a long shot: Does that gentleman still frequent beach cats & does he still have the Woody for sale ? If so would he contact me please ? Luciousbrun (@) gmail dot com. Thank you. If anyone else has a Woody for sale also please contact me just in case my good gentleman does not respond. Kindest regards, Lance.

Beware, spent about 50 emails with this gentleman from England about two years ago when my woody was for sale. Way too much talk and no action. Pete in Big Bear

Unfortunately things did not go according to my time scale, that happens in life from time to time as everyone knows; that does not make me a bad person. How dare you ! Out of respect I have come seeking you, so how was our discussion a waste of time ? I sent you 50 emails ? Did you correspond with me ? Yes. Was that correspondence over one Woody ? No. We spoke of many things, & don't say we didn't cuz we did. We were discussing a business proposition that was way & above the purchase of a single boat, so tell the truth ! Or how were 50 emails sent and replied too ! Over a single boat ! That's impossible. Business discussions often do not result in a business, that's life, it is no slur on my character. You are patently bitter cuz business did not go as you wanted it too. How childish & how disgusting to write what you have just written on the basis of a business discussion. How appalling. Also, had you any decency you would have spoken to me in private first, found out the situation & then you would have been informed instead of being just outright rude and insulting. Shame on you !

People can see for themselves the cost of talking business with you. And why on earth, after such a disgraceful message, did you call me gentleman ? You're a weapons grade hypocrite.

This discussion is through.

If anyone has an unpainted woody for sale I am in the market to purchase.

Kindest regards

Lance

Well Pete, I've calmed down since I posted my reaction to what you said. I should have not answered, calmed down, and then wrote to you - I live and learn. First, I apologise for abruptly ending our discussion 2 years ago, although to be fair I did have much more important issues to deal with. I also apologise for that last post, it was reactional.

I understand how you may feel, although I assure you I only ever did act and do act with honest motive. True to my word, and partly in response (not offence) at what you wrote, I will come and see you face to face, and we will see about whether your words are true.

I look forward to seeing you.

Kindest regards

Lance.

Lance, my woody Tornado is sold and two others in our area (not wood) have been sold recently. So that activity is gone. Pete

Lance,

Wooden boats are a lot of work. Shipping boats is about the same amount of work! It would cost more to ship a container from the U.S to the U.K than an older wooden T is worth, if you found one. Best to get in touch with the U.K Tornado class if you are interested: http://www.tornado-class.org/countries/uk/

Often owners need crew, so you may even find a ride without buying a ride!

The difference between me and you Peter is that I'll travel to the ends of the earth and back again and back again and back again and back again and back again and...to defend my honour, and my integrity. I will not tolerate being called a liar, by anyone.

IS IT REALLY? i think not

I will come and see you face to face, and we will see about whether your words are true.

IS THAT A THREAT?

You should've said that to start with. Why did you not say that to start with ? Now, you are lying.

Said what? the boat was sold after you stopped communicating with Pete or that shipping was more expensive than the boat was worth?

That was interesting, Lance not sure why you are so riled up but we try to keep things calm and on-topic here.

You were doing good for a minute.

Damon, why tell me, 'we keep things on topic' when Peter took things off topic with his first post ? After that, I've every right to defend myself; however, I do not see this matter being resolved over the Internet. As things remain I have nothing further to write.

Mr. Mattson, thank you for your observation. Although I have a solution to my current absence of a woody I am very willing to consider other possibilities; to be honest, anything Tornado related I am really interested in right now, whether plastic boats or technical information, and my only limitation is good quality. Please feel free to post accordingly; the matter that my no further writing was referring to is an entirely different matter to my interest in Tornados. Kindest regards.

Note. If your post was sarcasm, that is no problem to me. I will say though that many humans on this Earth have no standards today or even know what standards are, they think $ is standards; and, it is very easy to comment on people's work, but not so easy to produce original work. Have a nice day.

I second that. Very helpful and up front. He's helped me out several times when he didn't have to. But he's got a business to run, so his time and energy are valuable.

I thought we all kept on topic around here ? No, that was just a spiteful attack at me.

The bible says, 'Where a man invests his Β£ there his heart will be.' If you do trade with someone and the trade is pleasing to you then you will naturally have a good opinion of the seller. The most important thing in business is reputation: for the seller to go above and beyond simply the sale is 100% beneficial to the seller's long term profits as well as present happiness (everyone happy is always a happy thing). To judge the character of a person based on business financial transaction is absolutely blind stupidity, pure idiocy, and shows a pure idiot. Anyone is nice to you when money is involved. I told you the majority of the people on earth today do not know what standards are and that they think $ is standards. Idiots.

All of this began with 'his' first post, sent after he had concluded that $ from me was not possible; then he proceeded to assassinate my character in public. Read the post. After that, & his second post, he straight lied to me. If you want to know what a person is like, who they really are, then you will find that out when $ is not, and cannot, be involved - then you will see the true colours. 'He' is a proven spiteful liar - read the posts.

Any Man knows that his Word is his most valuable asset. But the majority of people on earth today hold $ to be their standard & standards, they cannot SEE the truth about what this 'issue' is about (a character assassination & being lied too) and yet still they post comments as if they did know. Their comments are based on $, and as such blind idiots they cannot see what is right infront of their eyes because they are blind with their value of $.

You are welcome for the blood spilled wisdom.

The man whose character was publicly assassinated and who was spitefully lied too is me. I am not interested in the opinions of others that are purely based on financial trade, I know truth. I have said, and it remains the truth, I do not see this matter being resolved over the Internet. I am no longer concerned to address the matter over the Internet, and the opinions of those who base their values in $ is of absolutely no regard to me. This topic is not about sycophantry, it is about Wooden Tornadoes. Wooden Tornadoes.

A man who sells boats and boat parts does not have time to do 50 emails and no deal (you admitted things never came to fruition due to your own issues)

This is not character assassination - it is a warning to anyone else who may deal with you - and you have proven yourself to be unstable, and now threaten people on the forum (I will come and see you face to face, and we will see about whether your words are true. .....Β I'll travel to the ends of the earthΒ and back again and back again and back again and back again and back againΒ and...to defend my honour, and my integrity.)

After that, & his second post, he straight lied to me.

"Lance, my woody Tornado is sold and two others in our area (not wood) have been sold recently. So that activity is gone. Pete"

He lied? that he sold the boat from 2 years ago? how is this a lie?
no need to answer - no one really cares about what you are saying

we all know Pete. He has provided quality first hand advice on this site for a very long time. He has had many satisfied customers from this site - not 1 has ever said a bad thing about his dealings

I don't know him at all but I know his reputation as an honorable guy who doesn't pull "fast ones" on his clients

Lance - move on - you have damaged your character, not Pete

Seems to me building a new woody would be a better long term solution than shipping an old one from over seas. Have you tried to pull some pricing on that?
