In Response To: The king has no clothes (Brian Nystrom)

the weird psychology about "friendly customer service" is that if you send out problems you can provide lots of friendly customer service. It's a feedback loop with no way out.
The Sass14 is the best example of totally ignoring ones own experience. Instead of removing the extra seat and marketing it exactly for what it was,,a nice small solo canoe it was marketed under the parameters that weren't changed, blueprints,plans and photographs. Which drove its acceptance down before it even got marketed well. It's totally unworkable as a tandem canoe, it's quite workable as a nice small/slightly heavy solo canoe. So the production version is totally different in 4mm than the demo version in 6mm and neither one with two seats makes sense, but nothing was changed.
