Yes Greg but only a little one. Ben: reminds me of Me as a lad. Only had a few pike but they don't half go! Great photo.

Wicked ! Nice big garden Kam

Thanks Kam. I'll give it some thought. Too tired at the moment. Jim

Nearly bought one. It's signed me up for Prime . . . . . . which I didn't want. They can stick it now! Cheers anyway.

Very nice Steve. Tidy looking job.

I should think his arms a too sore to lift a beer! ( Well nearly ) It's a lovely job though. Well done Mike.

Fantastic finish on that Mike. Superb job ! Jim

Plenty of slobbering going on at the Boat show! Gonna miss it this year. Oh well maybe next year!

Quote! " They sure have (him and the hair), he won’t let us cut it though mate ! Soon he will look like cousin IT ! " Yes I can see the likeness.

A beautiful boat indeed Steve. I go onboard at the boat shows for a drool ! WAY outside of my price range though. Jim

Try these Steve.

Apple I think Steve. I'll convert for you

I posted this drawing back in 2017. Just add dimensions and you'll have a working drawing. Jim Bow Roller.pdf

Good advice Mal.

It's always a compromise & trade off. Enjoy your quest.

Beneteau Barracuda. 7, 8, or 9 if you're feeling wealthy. Jeanneau Merry Fisher Marlin looks very similar but I would step on the barracuda and equivalent Jeanneau. The Beneteau doesn't tip but the Jeanneau does (in my experience) If I had some dosh that's what I'd go for but of course it's all down to your choices. Even the Barracuda. 7 can have a live well.

My Brother has bought something now but still needs the engine. I just thought that would be ideal for him. I was offered something else from a club member today but my Brother had already parted with some coin of the realm !

Lovely

My Brother wanted it too but I missed it. He was after something to " pootle around " near Lake Pier etc. with the kids.

Pure Magic !

Good Lad ! Of course you won't be going fishing anymore. You'll be spending " quality time " with your Son.

Nice one Neil. He'll be telling stories to his own kids in years to come about glorious days afloat with Dad ! Absolutely priceless !

Of course Terry. Myleene Klass, Kym Marsh, Suzanne Shaw,

Nothing wrong with a level bottom Pete!

Needs new Rings & valves looking at the smoke !
