Wedger Posted June 17, 2005 Report Share Posted June 17, 2005 She's here chaps Makes my Wilson Flyer look like a surf board! After a full day sorting fish on the job, it took us 4 hours to run out, 2 hours horse trading, and 6.5 hours carefully back @ 05.50hrs, but I thinks she's worth it! No toys but what a body Built like 'HMS D' Angler' Opinions please! I'll post a few better pics and get one on the water for the 'members boats' section when I'm back from hols . (might get a pass to try for a Marlin or Tuna if I'm good ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam F Posted June 18, 2005 Report Share Posted June 18, 2005 Wedger, Nice Boat!!! Im impressed! I also have been considering an MI21, so would love to pinch a trip out one day if I may??

great white Posted June 18, 2005 Report Share Posted June 18, 2005 Nice one mate It will make the wilson look very small, and GW very slow I stepped up from a wilson like yours to GW 14 years ago and have never regretted it. look forward to seeing you afloat, if there is anything I can help you with give me a bell Tight lines Charlie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afishionado Posted June 18, 2005 Report Share Posted June 18, 2005 That's one big tough boat. I am sure you will never lack for crew. Some of them might even bring their own bacon sarnies! Mad Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wedger Posted June 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2005 Thanks guys . All sounds very pos. 130hp Volvo TD with 270 leg does 20 knots. a change of bottom end to duo I'm told would give upto 30 knots wieght dipendent. the hull has ratings for 40knots + in the paperwork. I need electric gadgets quickly as the vendor stripped them for his new charter boat. Whats out there chaps? I may not respond till next week as I'm of to hols this week. If lucky enough I'll get you a fishy pic or two. Tight lines Wedger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob F Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 Ooooo, nice! For new electronics give Chris a call at Greenham & Regis. He does some great deals if you work at it. He's the best price for the Icom 421 DSC at Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul D Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 Very nice boat. I was considering a Day Angler 19+ but looking at the Souter that is tempting as well. Decisions, decisions ! If you are after a cheap VHF ( second hand ) then I have a Silstar VHF radio which hasn't got a bracket but is in working order ( at least was when I took it out the boat ) - they go for around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
