Hello John, Trust all is good with you. I just wanted to let you know that we finally got around to complete the Yamaha survey for the purchase of Malcom Smarts new dart and motor. We launched the boat last Friday and it was great!! The motor is so quiet and went well. Malcolm is really pleased and we enjoyed a great day out at Clontarf and motored over to Balmoral for lunch. Next time out we will try fishing! Hopefully Malc can get his brother or another guy to fish with him besides me! Lol. Thank you for your professional and friendly service. Perhaps see you another time. Kind regards,
