well some of you may or may not know where i have been the past 2 months. In the past 2 months i had to face two huge hardships in my life.
It started with filing for divorce after 9years of marrige with 2 kids involved, one 4 and a half years and one 6 months old, this was very devastating for me, but a mutual agreement between my wife and i has made it somewhat easier......just as things were getting better with that, i was hit with seperation of partnership in buisness....partnerships with family just dont work........this was done for many reasons and it will turn out for the best, but all of this happening to me within a little over a month, really knocked me down in the dirt and i'm still having trouble recovering.........For those of you who have been trying to contact me, i apologize for not returning calls, because i have turned into a hermit. As someone else stated on here, i will not be taking anymore orders for boats until i can get back on my feet and reestablish myself with starting a new buisness........i don't know when that will be, but just hang tight and please understand my situation.....but i will be back in full force one day, bigger and better than before!!!!!!!!!


coondik, basinhunter, tony b,paul darrin, bjg, la outlaw, stumpy, bayou boy, muddy, pasbon, swampsnyper, jus10la, crews, vac, brad s, and whoever i may have missed..........THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!! for being there for a brother during hard times....means alot fellas!!!!!!!

Sorry to hear about your hard times Ricky. I've never met you, but from the things I've heard about you on the site, you are a stand up guy. Keep your head up, and things will work out for you.

I'm sure that I speak for the majority of the forum when I say that we are here if you need something!!

Rickey, sorry to hear all of this. Hope everything works out. If you need anything, just hollar at me. Good luck man, and can't wait to see you building boats again. I will need another soon!

Good luck on your future man. I want the first boat when you get back in the game because I have a feeling the first one is gonna be a masterpeice.

Never met you Ricky, but been where you are and it gets better.
It takes time and only time will help.
Put me down as a potential buyer when you are ready-I'll have the cash$ and will appreciate your great work.
Good luck to you.

Take care of yourself, thats alot to deal with and I dont think anyone would blame you for taking time for yourself.

Anytime brotha anytime...You got my number if you need me.....Sorry I couldn't make it to the camp that weekend man I wanted to go bad but that sh!t I had to go through on sunday and monday just wouldn't let me....We should plan another weekend...

Keep your head up there Aucoin! Getting through the tuff shit is a bitch but try to keep in mind that at some point it will be history that made you a wiser man.

Just do us one thing and dont loose focus of what is more important in life. If there is anyone that can help you through this it will be yourself and God. keep us posted and keep it coming in HOT!!!

Prayers up for you and the lil ones especially....

The Aluminum will be there when the time is right - take care o'business

"Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you fave trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance."

you'll come out on the other side victorious amigo!

Can't keep a good man down for long. Prayers sent, and keep looking up because that is where it's at.

It'll be alright and like some said it'll make you a stronger person. Do what you gotta do for your kids and you, everything will end up for the better.

You see, that's the MMT I know, where folks give a shit about their fellow man and try to help one another when they're down. Despite what some might think of MMT (the ones that really have no clue) that the shit talking and ribbin is all there is here, there's a post like this that shows that MMT has the best damn members on the planet.

Dat's what I'm talkin' about.

Chin up Rick, things will work out!

keep your head up bro...it'll all be good soon! prayers with ya bro!

never met you Rick but i've seen some of your work on here. you are truly a craftsman. you must be a cool cat because all of these guys are rooting for you. i wish you the best and remember to pray about it. and i look forward to seeing your first boat too......
