sit Well with All the smaller it is a lot better than the original increase suggested in a 100percent increase is a lot easier to Swallow than a cent he i think its not totally out of line but if the prices continue to escalate until they get their full operating costs then there could be some bigger the new Price should enable operators to continue using the dry Dock and stay in Holtmann noted the government has said it will study the effects of the new he said most local Small boat operators will not Likely Winter their boats at the if no one Winters their vessels then the government sure
