Susan is interested in purchasing a yacht. She finds an advertisement for a $54$ Sea Ray located in Palm Beach, FL$.$ Susan lives in Holland, MI$.$ She contacts the boat$$s owner and states the following, $$If you deliver your $54$ Sea Ray boat to the dock at my home by September $1,$ I$$ll pay you $$700,000$ for it$.$ The boat$$s owner agrees and makes arrangements to deliver the boat to Susan. Because of its size, the owner decides to deliver the boat by water via the Atlantic Ocean. The voyage takes one week. The owner arrives within sight of Susan$$s dock on August $31.$ However, before he is able to actually deliver the boat, Susan runs to the end of her dock and calls out, $$The deal is off. I purchased a different boat from a brokerage firm.$$ If the boat$$s owner sues Susan, the modern view of most courts would be to take what action?
