Financial information

I am looking for an outright sale or license with royaties . This product is derived from protected harbors and rivers being overcrowded because familys downsized from the less fuel efficient boats to a more economical sized boat. since the overcrowdedharbors and rivers in which boats are moored at are continuously moving with the tides it has created a situation where the outdrives or outboard motors of each boat swings into one another causing damage to the gel coat and the propellers of the offending boats. Having this product would elevate any grievances between any boat owner and Harbor Master once purchasing this product for any boat. The Manchester by the sea Harbor Master of Massachusetts has already mandated and madf this a By-Law stating that all boats moored in Manchester by the sea inner habors and rivers must have a protective device over the outdrive of each boat to qualify a boat to have a moring in the Manchester by the sea harbor. The boaters are using makeshift devices such as , Plastic rubbish containers, Plastic milk creates and even life vest to coverthe lower unit of the outboard motors to qualify for a mooring .
