I'd like to pass along an email I got from Ray Curry at Burr Yacht  
Sales concerning the incident at the Annapolis Boat show so many years  
ago:

Ray,
Thanks for taking the time to write me.  I appreciate it.  Fleming is  
an absolutely gorgeous boat.  Had I not been planning on a  
circumnavigation, I think that Fleming would have been at the top of  
my list.  My experience was in the fall of 2002 and, as such, was a  
very long time ago.  For you to acknowledge and apologize for  
something that happened so long ago tells me that it was an isolated  
incident from a quality company.
