Please check my new letter

I think we have a legal way to do this. I am foreigner. If I buy any thing in Sweden I can return VAT when leave Sweden. May be you should not take a VAT from me? Could you tell with your accountant about this, please? It is important for me because VAT is 25%.

Перевод.

Я думаю, мы может сделать все совершенно законно. Я - иностранец. Если я покупаю что-нибудь в Швеции, я могу вернуть НДС, когда я покидаю Швецию. Может быть, вам и не следует брать с меня НДС? Вы не могли бы проконсультироваться об этом у вашего бухгалтера? Это важно для меня, поскольку НДС составляет 25%.

И еще:

I must take time-out. I must think and count my money. :) I will answer you in next week. Ok?
Please tell me: the rudder is dry inside? Or not?

Я должен взять тайм-аут. Я должен подумать и сосчитать свои деньги. :) Я отвечу вам на следующей неделе. Хорошо?
Пожалуйста, скажите мне: руль - сухой внутри? Или нет?

*My best guess, because it doesn't make sense to me any other way.

I think that Seagull means, that Sweden VAT should be refunded to him if he leaves the country (the money Seagull has paid as VAT should be given back to him). Hence the phrase: "Может быть, вам и не следует брать с меня НДС?". Why take something away only to give it back later? :)

Спасибо. Значит, я правильно понял.
Well, except for the rudder thing. I didn't get that at all, so I didn't try to translate it. What does it mean?

Судя по этому, ты не знакома с бухгалтерами. :lol:

Maybe it's "hollow" (полый), not "dry"?

I think Seangel does mean "dry inside (сухой внутри)". Here is a quote which I think explains this:

Quote:

With the boat out of the water in the fall, . . . drill a number of holes fore and aft of the rudder column into the rudder core. If there is any water in the core, you'll probably immediately see it start to seep out. Hopefully, your boat will be oriented so that the sunlight strikes the rudder. This will help drive the moisture out of the core. Depending on how severe you think the rudder is saturated; you might even try drilling a couple of holes in the bottom of the rudder. Holes are easily filled with epoxy so ensure that you drill 6 to 12 holes either side of the rudder column. Over the winter, watch to see if there is or is not weeping out of these holes. That's how you tell when the rudder is dry. Refill the holes with epoxy in the spring and paint when you do the bottom.

Matrosin made a small mistake:

I must take a time-out.

BTW: You can't always reclaim VAT on something you buy in Sweden. If the law is the same as in Norway, which it might very well be, you can reclaim the VAT only on certain items (from participating stores). Books in general, for example, you can't. Anything below a certain price is also non-refundable. So, whatever you plan to buy, you still may need to pay VAT for.

По поводу руля, хочу объяснить, что я имел в виду.
Руль - полый. Лодка сейчас стоит на берегу. И меня интересовало - сухой ли уже руль внутри? Потому что если не сухой, его еще нельзя ремонтировать, надо подождать, пока высохнет.

Теперь все ясно, спасибо. А я думал, что это было какая-то метафора, или идиома. :? :)
