Just wondering why you say an agreement was reached between Berk and you " PANTERA " when in fact the agreement was reached after months in court by a judge who awarded Berk $127k... Perhaps saying an agrrement was reached with Berk his attorneys and the judge would be more factual and honest, you make it sound like you yourself agreed to pay Berk back money's owed to him without any court interference !
I'm thinking your attorneys asked that any thread discussing this dishonest dealing be taken down so that future buisness would not be impacted, " like it never happened " and guessing you knowing how hard it is to achieve the recovery of any judgment would see how this would work in your favor. If Berk did request the threads to be removed it was only to receive his judgment! He has made it clear in others threads that the deletion of these was wrong and should have never been removed.
I've been following this thread since day one in the background and have remained silent, i believe we as a boating community all have a dog in this fight, maybe not financially, but deffinatly morally !

If memory series me correctly. somewhere around XXk was offered to buy out his interest in sos and walk away. This would have left you with a vested financial interest in that site. AS such, you would not have been on a competitors site blasting away.
Im not defending CS nor attacking you, only saying that being hypocritical in your zeal to expose can diminishes ones credibility. Which would be counter productive as it seams your motivation is to foster credibility, accountability and respectability in the sport.

I've never seen so many threads from a manufacturer get deleted as this one. And I'm talking from waaayyy back when the flag waver moderators deleted many informative threads, and I mean a bunch of them.

I agree. Don't understand why a boating forum will remove all the threads that should be left up as a FWIW warning to prospective buyers so they may make a decision with what I would call important info. Otherwise, chit can the Beware section. Just who is OSO protecting?

Or it could be that he just does not want any one else sucked into buying a boat, putting a large deposit down and waiting years to get it,if they even do.

It appears Berk's thread was removed sometime after the case was settled on 9-16-13.
Purely speculation on my part, but both parties may have requested to have it removed. I truly have no idea though.
When looking at both of the court record documents between Berk and Pantera, one document shows that a confidential agreement was reached in mediation.
The other document shows an agreed final judgement of 127k. Those were recorded a few days apart, but both are dated 9-16-13.

Your luck in screwing over people seems to have gone on for decades. Franklly I'm amazed that some disgruntled (mad as hell) customer hasn't put a bullet in you "yet". Some piece of trash, like yourself with no morals or values, like yourself, will put an end to your scams! Keep pushing your luck sport.
