Last year a friend tried to concat him but to no avail. The guy who leases space to him for his shop said last Spring that he was to busy with other job and would show up time to time to finish past orders.
In fall of 2012 getting in concat with his was very easy and he said at that time that within 6 months the boat could be made.
What I am hearing now, that is that he is NOT very reliable at the moment.
