plaicemat Posted September 29, 2014 Report Posted September 29, 2014 I have mentioned this in another place so some of you may be aware. I have just had a week of not salmon fishing in Scotland, a lack of water stopped the little rascals running up the rivers. However, everything was not lost as en route I dropped my boat off at Warriors in Leyland, Lancashire, to have a new engine fitted together with new windows. I collected it a week later to find that not only do I now have a new, black and sexy 70hp four stroke Suzuki on the back and new windows, they also replaced the fittings that secure the cover as some were broken, waxed and buffed the complete boat, replaced all the faded decals and threw in a new battery as, apparently, mine was passed it's best. Also, at my request, they fitted a Z step on the transom to aid boarding. The boat looks like a brand new package which has renewed my delight with this craft and I look forward to a few more years pleasure fishing around Poole and Christchurch. The after sales service at Warrior is second to none and the friendly team make parting with one's hard earned almost a pleasure. Well done chaps!

Stuie Posted September 29, 2014 Report Posted September 29, 2014 Alfie stopped off in Scotland to try for a salmon on his way to Shetland - he managed one too. Quote
plaicemat Posted September 29, 2014 Author Report Posted September 29, 2014 Bastard!!!! In fairness, a bit farther north they had more water but we were down to bare bones. Terry. Quote

Rob Posted September 29, 2014 Report Posted September 29, 2014 I wondered if you would get the windows done Terry! Now you can sit down and drive, saving yourself for hauling monsters!!! Enjoy! Quote
Maverick Martin Posted September 29, 2014 Report Posted September 29, 2014 Nice one Terry and a real bonus that Warrior went over and above for you, they are as you say nice people to deal with. Quote
Maverick Martin Posted September 29, 2014 Report Posted September 29, 2014 Oh and whats this about hard earned? you retired peeps do make I laurgh (no Dillies it's not a spelling mistake it's Dorset speak) Quote
plaicemat Posted September 29, 2014 Author Report Posted September 29, 2014 No Martin but Dillies is, according to Dilys!!! Rob, this will be the first time I will be able to use the half canopy during the dreary cod weather. Quote
Maverick Martin Posted September 29, 2014 Report Posted September 29, 2014 Like I said Terry Dorset speak Quote
Duncan F (bathclaret) Posted September 29, 2014 Report Posted September 29, 2014 Glad to hear Paul & Phil looked after you Terry. Not sure if you're on the Warrior Boats Facebook page, but if so it would be good to see this posted on there too - been a bit of non-deserved negative on there for the company in recent months....
