    Lasers - Applying a Blow Torch

    What "leap of logic"? LP owns SailLaser. Rastegar owns LP Rastegar is pissed at what he perceives are the NZ team moving in on "his terrritory" - His response is to move in on theirs. but to do so in a way that at the surface is not obvious to anyone.. How? By making a shell company "Sail...

    Lasers - Applying a Blow Torch

    You do realize that LP is the owner of SailLaser Centers... IOW they are selling to themselves. Note that from the article there is this little tidbid Notice the logic behind this. SailLaser is HQed in the UK and hence within the sales region of Laser Performance (Rastegar) but it "aims to...

    But then under that Contract LP was responsible for returning the molds and the Builder's Manual... Why didn't they?

    This is dubious - If Party X and Y have a contract that has mutually binding obligations, if Party X violates some of those obligations, that does not mean that Party Y can assume the contract is null and void and thus stop performing on its obligations. The best example of this is a rental...

    Its what incorporation does and why Citizens United was such a bad decision (but that's for PA)

    The moment they were incorporated.

    Lasers - Applying a Blow Torch

    Not quite - I think that someone can easily claim to have developed an add on product for a Laser - see Seitech's dinghies, various boat covers and compass mounts etc. In fact though IANAL - given how vigorously Disney an others (like Xerox) have pursued Trademark and Copyright protection lest...

    Lasers - Applying a Blow Torch

    You left out a piece As a result I think makes a lot of sense. These Exhibit disclosures make Rastegar look like a real ass and quite mendacious, thus a few more rounds of them and the GS/BKI may feel the ILCA might start weighing in with them on what a fair mediation outcome looks like.

    Gouv I LIKED your analogy... Gannt the ILCA meeting notes you cite do not necessarily indicate a lot of 'behind the scenes" stuff going on. Those notes are 100% consistent with the email threads and Heinrich BELIEVING commitments had been made by LPE when in fact those "commitments" were...

    Lasers - Applying a Blow Torch

    I'm not convinced Rastegar ever intended Maclaren to provide sponsorship to the ILCA If he had, he would have used his Maclaren email in the discussions rather than his Hotmail account and he would have offered to expedite the sponsorship process rather than telling Heinrich to "line up at...

    I suspect the reason for using Hotmail was to make sure that Heini didn't realize that McLaren is one of Rastegar's own corporations Imagine if instead the email in the second exhibit had read:: I think even Heini then would have figured out Mr Rastegar was stringing him along

    Ya know, one of the big criticisms of mid eastern men's sexuality that came out in a recent study was how much they were Wam Bam Snore... Not sure that sort of getting laid helps anyone.

    Ah yup... Rastegar is basically a fuckup.

    Lasers - Applying a Blow Torch

    Well Rastegar comes across as a first class dickweed. Heini comes across as a bit of a bumbling idiot. Kirby comes across as someone looking to do the right thng. Furthermore Rastegar comes across as more than a touch dishonest in as much as he directs Heini to approach McLaren as some arms...

    Well you do realize that you can go in and change the Wikipedia page. I wouldn't be surprised if Rastegar etc aren't involved in that as well.

    Lasers - Applying a Blow Torch

    Ah yup. And the "loaded cost" of an employee adds roughly $20-$50/hr to what you pay them. Actually with Resin infusion you could easily end up with exactly the same weight boat but with much more repeatability in weight and production. As to detailing, I suspect you could end up with a lot...

    Lasers - Applying a Blow Torch

    Well since it looks like they are spraying gell onto the finished hull as opposed to into the mould, its clearly a spray issue. Note the date on the video April 2013... You think Rastegar is engaged in a PR campaign :-) The thing is that its actually rather low tech production, the bog...

    Hmm so then why didn't he return the molds and the CM?
