Good day.
It was pleasant meeting you yesterday, especially in my time of need. As discussed, I'd like to have an engine repair, or replacement done to my T-833-GB "Ahoudori" Kusari Explorer. The model I own of the said ship is nearing its 36th year in service. 30 of which was spent in dry docks or moored, most importantly, out of use. While I have done everything in my power to preserve most of the systems, with my recent travels it has become less and less reliable. I would not want to experience a complete failure of the drive systems when I need them most.
That is where you, honorable ladies and gentlemen come into play. I wish to hand the ship into your care for the time being, to have said systems checked, and overhauled in the worst case. I would be grateful, if you could tell me the financial details of said repairs, and the timeframe, in which you could make them.

It's good to make your acquaintance Ms.Shinkai,
I remember you, certainly know how to make a good first Impression. Well you brought Lost.Hours to the right place, sure we can put her up in Vieques and make sure every thing that's moving is supposed to be and everything that isn't, isn't. Standard check up will be a nominal fee, 20 Million should cover it. Now assuming everything is working fine that's where it ends, worst case scenario it might go somewhere between 50-100 Million. But the top end is if we have to fully replace the internals so, don't freak out, that is rarely the case. Only saw that in the wreck of a CTE-12400 "Condor" Civilian Gunboat found drifting into the Rift.

Good day.
I'm pleased to hear that was the case. It isn't the easiest to leave a good impression, when the better half of the sector wishes to enrich me with heated plasma. As for the business in question, I have left my ship at Vieques, in your care. I'm not all too bothered by the price, so long as it keeps my vessel in one piece.
Feel free to forward the fee in question, once the damage assessment is made.

Ms.Shinkai,
Alright had my team take a look at whats going on and lucky for you its mostly old busted fuses and a few fried wires causing all your problems. Give us about a week and your ship will be back in working order. As for the fee, 50 Million seems reasonable. Mostly labor costs most of what we need is right here on Vieques already.
Send your payment to .:j:.Finance.Department, once that is received I will get the ball rolling on my end.
