    Radar safety

    Who has radar and how high is it above the deck??
  2. Twas one of my mates and his son diving. had to dive out the way......... son torn up on the rocks with ripped wet suit and bruised leg. Very lucky inches from serious disaster. They were well marked and right on the training bank. Q FB Anyone who dives Studland training bank be careful, myself and my son were nearly hit by an extremely careless boat owner yesterday evening, ignoring my marker float, totally ignored the red marker posts warning of the shallow reef, we both had to jump out of the way as his boat ground across the top of the rocks. It wasn’t as if it was a cheap couple of grand boat, I’m talking £70-100k yacht. I’ve dived that mark regularly every summer for the last 10 years and have had a few close calls but that was beyond stupidity. it was absolutely horrific, my boy had to jump out the way otherwise he would have been right under the hull, managed to get away with just a ripped wetsuit and grazes on his leg.
  3. Yes it is a proper one Charlie. See you later. T

  7. You've just been robbed and I stole it from the safety of my own domicile. 😆
  8. Keep watching you ain't seen nothin' yet!
  9. See ya later Tomo 😎
  10. Always used Greenham and Regis. Not pushy and sound advice.
  11. https://www.boatshop24.co.uk/fishing-boats/orkney-day-angler-21-day-angler-21/378995 Having posted this I can't find an image so not sure it would suit.
  12. I have seen one tied alongside in Lymington. Some time ago but worth a walk around the pontoons when you are there. I will ask a couple of skippers.
  13. Good to hear you got sorted on that one! You don't need a shocker to begin with. Not sure if it is up your street but I have an old sweetheart for sale soon. An absolute bullet proof missile - but for a discussion off this thread. Good look.
  14. Thank you guys for your kind wishes! Had a great day in the garden.🤣
  15. Always used Aluminium on Otter. She was on a tidal mooring almost on 'Two Rivers Meet' at the bottom of the Stour, Christchurch. Most seasons they were very knackered - reassuringly! No leg problems or most other parts but the beginnings of an issue with Volvo Ali props which surprised me. Sorted soon enough but had not expected that as they are supposed to be 'top banana' and not 'rot banana'

  18. No not yet - might go next weekend.
  19. Eeeer Pub?
  20. Just into Wareham Forest - a freebee with the van
  21. Hi Jim, yes seen this one. A very good illustration of what happens when any trailer is poorly loaded - correct nose weight is crucial.
  22. All sorted thank you! First weekend away too 😀
  23. So boys and girls, 'Herself' has had a rush of blood and bought a newish caravan. Question is, can any of you lovely peeps recommend a good insurance company for a touring caravan??
  24. Sheila is very busy at the moment but I will have a word.
  25. Thank you all very much for the Birthday Wishes. Most Kind.🍻 Much ale was consumed by way of honouring your good wishes folks!
