Forum issues soon to be resolved. I hope :-)

[Steven Vaccaro]

The forum is getting more and more popular. Which is a good thing for all of us. But we as users have been having continuing issues. The site can only handle so many users at any one time. Yesterday we had 2 very popular search engines roaming the site. They alone took up about 15 user slots.

There is only one way to fix this, a larger and more robust server. Today we switched our hosting service to a much more dependable form of hosting. I hope the changes will take effect on Monday. Please bare with me during this transition.

i`ve sent a few emails to steven that havent been answered yet,hopefully it hasnt slowed shipping times down,
i ordered last thursday eve, and still havent received my order,quite unusual for ose usually very quick service.
i hope my new hull arrives tomorrow other wise i`ll be away for a week and it might melt in the 116 + deg sun sitting outside.

sorry for the rant,
mike

No shipping hasn't slowed. Hulls ship ups. UPS is normally 3-6 business days.

This is posted before you click the the shipping button.

NOTE: For orders shipping in the USA.
It takes 4 to 5 Business Days to receive orders.
Please only select UPS for large items. For Example, Boat Hulls or RTR Boats.

sorry steven,
i must be going blind-i didnt see it.

No problem.

Up until about a month ago we could have used usps.
Now usps uses dimensions as a factor in calculating the cost, along with the weight. So to ship that boat would have cost 2-3 times what you paid for shipping.

If usps is taking 7-9 days for the time the item was dropped off i would speak to the local post office. Thats not acceptable.
