backing out of wee seal deal

27/3/25: 10:46hrs
Call from Robert Ayliffe, Straydog Boats
Today Robert spoke sternly to Peter about the state of the boat& ballast set up. Peter was concerned that I was unhappy and offered a $5000 discount. Robert offered free hatches. 

Also acknowledged him nor Peter has been in contact with boat for years. Less committed about trailer etc. 

I clearly stated I wanted to quash the sale & had requested quotes to the boat trucked to South Australia. 

Robert preoccupied with the keel profile said he eats yes to clarify whether of was foiled or not, and that he would relay my request to Peter & get back to me. 

c.1630hrs
Msg from Robert advising trailer is unreg in SA but that Peter will be fixing this soon. "Hold tight".

mass political deception

On the day a gunman nicked ex president Trump's ear the world politcians decried violence as evil, undemocratic & so on, more than 39 people were killed in Palestine. These events highlight mass hypocrisy across the world with regards violence & race.  No one in the media industry will ever mention this hypocrisy.
