They do suggest setting up a system that others with similar problems can
turn to for help. I don't think a community of people helping each other
out is such a bad idea.
I've heard that ferro-cement boats are durable and easy to repair.. so why
won't insurance companies insure them? Just a thought.
In any case, them asking for help in no why obligates you to provide it.
I can't afford to at this time, but I would certainly consider it were my
personal finances in order.
