Post subject:  AUCOINS CUSTOM FABRICATION

alright guys, i'll start with an apology for not posting any explanation since my big dilemma with boat manufacturing. This has been a big burden on my mind for a while now and i'm sorry for not explaining the problem that aucoin's fabrication has encountered with the coast guard a long time ago. Many of you on MMT are great friends and customers of mine, and i thank and appreciate all of you.

Kurtis an I decided to make a serious buisness decision to stop manfacturing boats due to the rules, regulations and liability of coast guard in what i rather not get into right now. For those of you who know us guys at aucoins fab, you know the buisness we run, and we are basically the "little man". Both kurtis and i have families and homes to keep up just like all of you, and we dont want some federal official with a name to take that from us, i guess you can say we are playing the safe side, but aucoins fab is not soley dependent on boats. We also do alot of oilfeild fabrication and without that we have nothing at all. So getting fined for some boat regulations that we didn't abide by, can seriously hurt our buisness.

Thank you Tony Broussard and MMT for getting aucoins where it is today!!!



besides all of that AUCOIN, or like brooks would say ''OKWAN'' is here to stay at MMT!!!!!!!!! :mrgreen:



CARRY ON!! :mrgreen:

Sucks I didnt get my order in on time, but I understand. FWIW if the rumor I heard is true, that BS, otherwise, business is business, and cant let a fine or what not take your big money away because of a little side work

Hey Rick, here's how we handle that, let's get an envelope together, a nice thick one and give it to "the man" and get back to building boats 8-)

That sucks man. Like my MMT compadre above said you guys are some good people.
