Happy Birthday Mick. Don't see much of you any more. Hope all's well & enjoy your day. Jim

Happy Birthday Nigel. The big 60 eh? Just a baby yet then. Beer & Cake !

Blimey Charlie! I've downloaded it but I'll read it another day when I'm less cream crackered. Looks like a great trip. Jim

Happy Birthday Pete.

And for fuel injected motors:

Hi Nick I'm guessing yours is an inboard but for anyone with an outboard you may find this interesting:

Oh yes I do the same with Jacqui ! Thinking about it . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . I do the same with EVERYBODY ! Have a great day Kids ( And Parents )

Proud Dad !

Great to be out with the family AND catch a few fish. Well done Rob. Jim

Sounds as though we all enjoyed our day out. Shame the Rays were a bit scarce but still a good day. Jim

Hi Neil, I have the Icom IC-M33 VHF Marine tranciever. A few of us bought them at the same time. Not sure of the price but just over £100 I think. I think I bought it about six years back. It's waterproof and floats. ( I've never tested that though ) It still holds a good charge and has never had any issues. The floating bit is very important though I believe. Hope you find a bargain. Jim

One TINY spotted to Me on Madness. Terry had a good Tope 30lb+ We all hooked stuff and got bitten off. Had a few very small congers. Terry had 2 of the smallest Mackerel I've ever seen. What a gorgeous day to be out. Thanks again Martin. Terry your home made pasties heated up in the Dutch ? oven were superb. Thanks for a fantastic day out. Jim

I forgot to say: Tiddler is only 4 metres ( 13 feet ) We're happy outside of the harbour but only if it's quite calm. We have been through some lumpy stuff and she was very capable but always err on the side of caution. Jim

I've been eagerly awaiting reports of the Norway thing. As Dave said " >>>>&&&^%$£"£$$%%" I take my hat off to you for putting it back to grow bigger and make lots & lots & lots of babies. Very well done on both Catch & Release. I suppose now a 60lb Conger is just " BAIT " to you ? ? ?

Hi James, Welcome to the club. You don't say how much boating or Poole harbour or Poole bay experience you have. If you're very inexperienced the RYA level 2 as Terry said is very important. Also see if others are going out and see if you can " tag along " Or See if there are crew spaces on other boats just to get the " feel " of things. You've joined a fantastic club. We all aim to help each other enjoy our sport as safely as we can. Jim

Yes the forecast has improved a lot over the last few days. I'm quite excited as we get nearer.

Quote Maverick " I guess you're looking for reviews on the 215 Arvor ? " So ! Anyone in the club looking for an excuse to go out ? ? ? Want to show your boat off to Brian ? Maybe Dianne as well ? ? ?

If there's some in the club have you been out on any? Always worth an ask ? ? ?

Good enough to frame Brian ? We'll have to do it again when you get the new boat. You'll be sorry to see Megabyte go. Warriors: Very good boats.

Martin, Jim & Terry on Madness Allan and Mike Hall plus non member on Fisheagle. Day to be decided. Sunday at the moment. Stuie & son Glen on Sea Dream - Sunday at the moment.

Whoever buys Megabyte will get a well looked after boat.

Thanks Martin.

Visited the Silent Woman then ?

Gawd bless ya Mick. I enjoyed every minute of it.

Thanks for that Brian. Where's the fun in being old if ya can't get a bit of discount ? Ah well. I'll go and find a spotty teenager to bash with my walking stick ! That'll cheer me up !
