Super boat Alan.

Jim

Are you lot looking at a different weather forecast than me ? ? ? ?

Hi Terry,

Sorry about Dilys' arm. Make sure she keeps the other parts of the arm moving.

The joints lock up so quickly. The fozen joints are worse than the break.

Jim

Brian,

Them's lovely Tubes.

Tiddler's tubes are still in my imagination, but various styles are being considered.

I need to get them sorted soon though.

Jim

Thanks Stuie.

Cracking piccies of the Tiddler.

Jim

OK so we are out Monday evening in the dark with a bottle of fizzy

 

Fire up the radar!!!

 

Tony

Martin

You know I'm afraid of the Dark Martin !

I'm a Sunshine Boater

Jim

If you weren't wearing the Santa outfit then I would be disappointed!!!

 

Rob

Jim

Cheers Mal.

Only one can left.

Jim

Another

Some pictures of Sea Dream.

Thanks lads.

I need to get hold of Stuie for some photos.

I'm just chuffed to bits

Jim

PS is the turbo fixed???

Almost, it's actually on the boat but one more item is required to complete. Hopefully this will be done Monday with sea trial when weather allows

 

Martin

But you go out ALL weathers Martin. ( Well almost )

Hope all goes well.

Jim

Wow !

That's what I thought as I zipped out from Poole Harbour today.

My engine's done the " run in " and today was my first chance to " give it some " and see what the Tidler could do on a flat sea.

30 knots or 34.5 mph ! ! !

She sits beautifully on the water too.

I did a bit of fishing and caught my ususal . . . . .nowt !

The day was all about me getting used to my boat. Well -- - - - -I'm in love. It's wicked.

Saw Stuie in the harbour and after a chat, he took some pictures of the Tiddler in action. I'm hoping he'll post a few on here.

This probably reads like an advert or sales pitch. I'm just chuffed.

Stopped for a chat with the skipper of Kelly's Hero on the way back through Holes Bay. Then saw Martin at Cobb's slipway.

A very good day to be out, and a lovely boat to be afloat on.

Jim

Happy Birthday Rob.

Have an Extra piece of Cake.

Jim

B'Stards ! ! ! !

Jim

Excellent ! ! !

Jim

we saw you re anchoring a few times, but didn't know it was you.

There were loads of boats out there ( Tony counted 50 )and hardly any radio chatter so we didn't know who was who.

I suppose nobody wanted to say how well they were doing in fear of being swamped by other boats coming to nick their fish.

Jim

They phoned me on Saturday saying I had a virus on my computer.

I stayed on the line for ages pretending to switch on my " slow computer "

They wanted me to press the " Windows and Alt key "

Then they asked what I could see. I said " a bunch of fairies dancing around the garden "

When I said the call was costing me nothing and I was happy to talk crap all day ( yes Rob ) they hung up.

" F " them ! !

Jim

Just on the off chance.

My brother needs a Frail.

I didn't know until the other day, but that frame on the side of a window company van for carrying glass etc. is called a Frail, and My Brother needs one.

Does anyone have or know of one that's available.

Jim

Again James, your skill pays off !

What a Belter ! ! !

Jim

Happy Birthday John.

Jim

Gorgeous Boat - - - - - - - Ugly bloke

Sorry you're selling Derek.

Upsizing - - - Downsizing - - - or giving up boat owning ? ? ?

Jim

They are Indeed !

Jim

I have a Navionics Gold card for this area on SD not Micro SD are you sure you need a Micro SD ? ?

I may be persuaded to part with it if my palm is crossed with enough "coin of the realm"

I bought it about 3 years ago from Piplers - - - -about
