Wow Ken, I can't believe it took you so long to post this. Figured you would have just gone straight to SOL and copied and pasted it from that thread you were involved in.
So, let's get back to the topic at hand.
Remember, you need to learn to be accurate with your statements and have FACTS to back them up.
You post and article that, amongst other things, quotes two disgruntled employees filing lawsuits as to what Viking's involvement in RFA was. And we all know that people filing lawsuits are always 100% truthful in making their claims against the person or group whom they are suing right?
Anyway, you said, and I quote-

And, that statement is completely false. Had you bothered to do any research beyond a single newspaper article posted on the internet you would have known the facts.
Suffice to say Viking was approached to help fund a new recreational fishing organization, not the other way around. The logic was, they have a stake in healthy fisheries, so why not get some big money backing to help fight the enormous amounts of money at the "antis" disposal. Second, if you notice even in that newspaper article there is no mention of any party boat groups.
Wanna know why?
Because there were no party boat groups involved in starting the RFA.
How exactly can the RFA have allegiance to a group or groups that started them when no such groups exist? Plus, it's not like the connection to Viking Yachts has been any big secret, the RFA offices used to be right on site at the Viking offices. That was one way they could focus more of the money coming in on the issues, by not having to rent outside offices.
Perhaps some day Ken you'll learn how to actually research the facts, but I don't think I'll be holding my breath waiting.
