gjb Posted September 24, 2015 Author Report Posted September 24, 2015 Now plan something new phone call may be able to keep starting price so now waiting Quote
Jim Posted September 24, 2015 Report Posted September 24, 2015 2 grand off a boat in that sort of price range ? If they can't lose that to keep the sale then there's something wrong. Make sure you tell them which club you're a member of and how many people will be seeing this. Tell them to weigh up the 2 grand against the bad publicity ! ! ! Hope it get's sorted Graham.

gjb Posted September 24, 2015 Author Report Posted September 24, 2015 Don't know Martin just a call saying it was being sorted so I am just happy to be where I should be Quote
Bobby Buoy Posted September 24, 2015 Report Posted September 24, 2015 Interesting to hear that. I looked at the 660 parker quite seriously but the price just kept going up the longer the deal went on so I pulled out in the end. Glad they decided to back down. Nice boat....I'll be interested in how you get on with her. Quote

I do think that when buying something new you start to put your bits you would like to have on it then it is allways more than you want cost wise , and i think that is right across the board Jim 1 Quote
great white Posted September 25, 2015 Report Posted September 25, 2015 Glad it got sorted out for you. How true is that about the "Extras" I know one ex member that added 50% to his new boats cost by adding all of the whistles and bells he could think of. gjb and Jim 2 Quote

Duncan F (bathclaret) Posted October 14, 2015 Report Posted October 14, 2015 Purchase of my new Beneteau 393 "stealth angling boat", as Mike put it, was completed on Monday, all ok. She is in the Med at Golfe Juan, France and will stay there for the foreseeable. Off out next month by road with a car load of bolt on goodies - exciting times .

gjb Posted October 14, 2015 Author Report Posted October 14, 2015 well done have a great time on her Duncan F (bathclaret) 1 Quote
Mike Fox Posted October 14, 2015 Report Posted October 14, 2015 Congratulations Duncan!!! I hope you find the combination of nautical skills needed to make the best of it! Not sure the fishing is the same down on the French Med Coast. Will be VERY interested to see what works down there, and what doesn't. If nothing else, you should be able to provide us all with pictures of exotic species we can only dream of here as the frosts set in. Mike Jim and Duncan F (bathclaret) 2 Quote
Duncan F (bathclaret) Posted October 14, 2015 Report Posted October 14, 2015 Cheers Mike, a couple of rail-mount rod holders and paravanes are in the post! Realistically though, if there were any fish left down there the b*ggers wouldn't be infesting "our" western approaches. Still, we will give it a go and see what happens Quote
