Golly Andrew now I have been alerted by one of your ex jetski fishing members that you are swinging your years of experience round on this forum, I feel I have to clarify what Ski M.D is about.

To clarify a few facts after a couple of people ruining a simple post, BONO asked where do you get a Yamaha serviced...
I suggested a Yamaha authorized dealer and clarified facts which are true!
As I would expect most owners of any quality product would ie. If you own a Yamaha outboard, the majority would prefer to get it serviced by the network who have the genuine back up support.
As for Kevin, yes he actively continued to increase a database and revenue on my own forum. Eventually diversifying to a conflict of interest and I offered he could have paid business space and refused, then continued to break forum protocol, which I am sure he will do the same on here... now jumped on the Jetskifishing band wagon, yet doesn't even Jetskifish, got to love the experts!
For myself, I have contributed over 100 fishing reports on this forum since 2008 being my passion, so it is not something new for me being here...
I have introduced many people to this forum who have also now contribute and met some great members. Personally helping 100's of Jetskifisho's free of charge increasing the momentum on Jetskifishing including HOTBODZ! Some people have a short memory and instead of being negative about what I do, maybe someone else try doing do a better job that what I have.
First place is to start for the smart asses, contribute to the industry for free like I have with 1000's hours of advice and putting jet-skis to good use on the water with fishing... then try applying your passion to forming a business while being a father of 3!
There is only so much I can do for free and it seems that to many freeload on my work or expect to make dollars from my initiatives, got to love the kiwi way.
A reminder, keep the BS off the forum and maybe a few more get out fishing and add a few more fishing reports and help out showing the world how fun the sport is!
Love the forums, but some people need a life... Hope the point gets across, I think I've vented enough and I'm going fishing!

Small industry mate!  A few have to learn about ethical business and friends, it doesn't help that some have X's as oppositions...
This recent squabble isn't helped when one of the posters goes stirrs to Kevin, which I thought most grew out of after leaving school.
I think BONO's questions have been answered so maybe lock the post.

I think the service manager of a Holden dealership would still have a pleasant beer with his counterpart at a Ford yard. Don't get me wrong Andrew - I enjoy your reports and appreciate the energy and focus you're putting into getting ski's beyond the obnoxious "look at my big willy" stigma they've been tagged with. It just seems odd that these squabbles seem to come up on here all the time whereas the outboard mechanics seem to get on fine... I personally like the BEER thing Let,s face it ,live is to short and with so many tragedies happening around the word we should try to make friends not enemies I like to call Andrew a friend and in my opinion Kevin is a great mechanic who told me a lot about maintaining my ski.So if there is a slight chance to bury the hatchet over few beers I AM BUYING    Cheers   The Smoker

and Yes beers like we had last week for the Jetskifishos will be on again.

HI All...

Thanks for all the advice and I am really sorry I didn't mean to cause any argument between members.

Thanks again Guys.

Cheers

Bono
