Brian Posted September 8, 2012 Report Posted September 8, 2012 Were you out today Jim, didn't see it in your drive when I went past? Quote
Jim Posted September 10, 2012 Author Report Posted September 10, 2012 Not out Saturday Brian, But went out on Sunday to get some hours on the engine. Lovely boat, Lovely engine. On the rare ocasions that we get a calm sea, It'll fly. It was quite lumpy outside of the harbour yesterday but she was happy enough at 16 to 18 knots. Then nipped over to the Family Day. The chapman boys ( and a young lady ) went swimming Serenity was hosing a Bar-B. Thanks Lorraine for feeding me I left early to get some more hours on my engine, but by the time I got back to the harbour entrance, it had got quite " snotty " so I thought I would get back to Cobb's to miss the busy bit ( wrong ) Although it was busy, it was quite orderly and I don't think I made too much of a hash of it ( first time out ) ( and on my own too ). My thoughts so far - - - - - - - It's not a Warrior, but for ease of launching and retrieval and general handling etc. It's Wicked ! ! ! Jim Quote
Rob Posted September 10, 2012 Report Posted September 10, 2012 Happy for you Jim! Glad your enjoying the most of not choking on those 2 stroke fumes!!!! Single handed too - did you manage to store your baguettes ok as you are short on the bling at the mo? Rob Quote
Jim Posted September 10, 2012 Author Report Posted September 10, 2012 (edited) Hi Rob, Have you been on a boat with an E-Tec ? They are very good y'know. Having said that, this Honda is very smooth and quiet. You're right about the bling though ! - - - - I don't half miss them Rod Holders. I'll have to get busy " Conjuring " Cheers Matey.

Jim Posted September 18, 2012 Author Report Posted September 18, 2012 Thanks Tony & Martin. Good of you to use the trick lens to make me look fat. Jim Quote
Jim Posted September 18, 2012 Author Report Posted September 18, 2012 Saw Mr. & Mrs. Mal Thomas at the show. They said they saw me over Christchurch in Tiddler. I wasn't there so it seems we may have been naughty and nicked someone elses Name. Oops ! Oh well, we're not gonna change it. Jim Cheers for the photo Chris. Quote
Jim Posted September 18, 2012 Author Report Posted September 18, 2012 Oh yeah ! I forgot to say - - - - Just paid for a year's Cobb's slipway pass so hoping to get out a bit more. Jim Quote
Wedger Posted September 19, 2012 Report Posted September 19, 2012 How great to see you out Jim! Come and bother us in Xchurch sometime! Quote
Jim Posted September 19, 2012 Author Report Posted September 19, 2012 I hope to Trev. I'd like to try for some Bass at some stage. Jacqi's cracked ribs are improving so I may even have a Galley Slave with me. Jim Quote
