Yet another snag

I was hoping to drop the engs in this week, but hit another snag. 4 of the orig bolts that secure the gimble assys to the transom where rusted pretty bad and I didn't want to re-install them. Ordered them online. The 4 bolts are supposed to be 7/16" by 4.25" long. Here's what I received today:
Really?!?!?

Boating isn't about fun....It's about hard work and frustration

I sent the company an email regarding the wrong parts being delivered and how obvious the mistake was. Got a reply from their president today saying he would ship the correct parts ASAP and he would have a talk with the parts dept.
Kind of refreshing to see the president of a company respond to a complaint regarding $16 worth of parts.
On the downside, hit another snag today when I went to install the exh Y-pipes. Can't find the gaskets I had prev received. This one is all on me.
Looks like I'm delayed for 2 more weeks at least.
