Don't know if you are aware, but there is a site for E-Tec owners like yourself, should find plenty of advise here ,if my link works haha E-TEC owners you will probably have to register and then ask all the questions Gary

I'm still about jim, I've been at rocky dry stack for nearly 2yrs now, its ok there but like Brian says it would be nice to get out in the evenings at short notice, also they close at xmas so you have to make a decision to leave it on the pontoon or not . Its just a big step to anti-foul or not (pontoon berthing forever or not) why don't you try at rocky for 1yr and see how you get on ? call the expense an adventure and it won't hurt so much when am i gonna see you out there ? lots of plaice at the moment close enough for you Gary

Brian , did you have to scuff the hull up to apply the ant-foul or can it be primed on a smooth gel-coat ? just thinking about doing the same but I was wondering what the reverse process would be like, (re-sale price etc) my previous warrior had been anti-fouled and it was a blooming nightmare getting the hull clean again. good luck on Megabytes new home, Gary

There is a Warrior site on facebook with about 800 members on there.......maybe they are all potential customers ? I don't go on facebook really although my eldest set me an account up, but I have never put anything on there. Anyway, it may be worth a try ? , nothing ventured nothing gained and all that. Gary

Brian, that sounds a fair price to me, I will call you when the boat is back at Rockley, Jim, hopefully I will see you out on the water soon......by the way you didn't say if the rod tubes are still in production or not ? Gary

If you are selling them Brian can I have first refusal please ? I will have to check to see if they fit the 175 bridge first.....just to make sure. I am also at Rockley but the boat is having some work done elsewhere and may not be back until a week Saturday have you a price in mind ? can you pm me ? you maybe interested in the ones I have now (height wise) as they are a few inches lower although the dull grey aluminium might put you off Gary

I got the boat second hand from Romney Marsh (near Dover) back in August, was nearly giving up after 3yrs searching and saving. The boat is called "Catch 22" and is kept on a dry rack at Rockley (too much physical exercise in trailing her) Hopefully after a few things to sort out I will be out on the water soon ? Jim, can you still get hold of a set of rocket launchers? as the boat has some but they are those dull horrible aluminium ones Gary

I still look in every now and then to see if anyone is going out in this blooming wind I knew as soon as I got another boat the weather would change...... Gary

Yep thats my old boat, If it's the same engine I think it's been used as a garden ornament ( jim), about the same engine hrs as when i sold it I sold it about 3 yrs ago and have recently bought a second hand 175 Gary

That's great news Dave/cam, Many thanks for the replies guys, I know these boats have been around a few years now........still not heard of any horror stories on the internet, Dave if you don't mind .....can i P.M you one day(just want some info before viewing a 6007) Gary

Sounds good Rob, Does he by any chance have anything to do with xchurch angling club? Only reason........the only Redfinn i saw at Wick slip was a owned by a chap ........who i'm sure he said he belonged to christchurch angling club ?(had a green Land Rover). Duncan, 1st choice would be a 175......not to sure on the export, no self draining deck and no under floor storage are just two things i would like. Gary

Thanks , i will keep an eye on the warrior......although it looks like it has been neglected and will need a fair bit of cash on it. Dave, one of the first places i looked was you're site Please keep the comments coming Gary

Jim, 2nd hand 175's seem as rare as rocking horse sh.. Not to sure about the chine in the hull or the supports on the side acting as a trim tab? do like the look of the big brother of tiddler....shame i can't afford one Steve, sounds good , but as the hull is quite light @(600kg) would wonder what the ride was like Gary

Just wondering if anyone out there has any information about these boats, I have read the normal reviews ........but can't seem to find anything from 'normal boat owners' only people who are trying them for a day. So if anyone local has one.......or knows of someone with one and would like to chat about there boat please get in touch Best Regards Gary

Alun, prop revs are at bailey gate ind estate sturminster marshall.......or where..... PBSBAC get 10% off Gary

Been on the homemade hooch again

Got a spare one here..........grey, roughly 155mm in between fittings. PM for more details...,pick up address Gary

Johnnyb, If you have trouble getting them you may have to go usa I think there is a link somewhere for actuators........got a feeling 'Rob' put it on. try searching for it or wait till Rob ain't so busy........or rested Gary P.S this might be it www.gasspringstruts.co.uk

might do Jim.......see what the weather brings might be worth looking out for a giant rockling are you going Jim.......on Small Fry.....or on your mate's ? Might be worth it ........just to try and get a pint out of you Gary

In the end i went for the big heavy duty one from SBS trailers. Gary

Thanks for the offer Tomo, Still no response from SBS Trailers regarding previous enquires. And not gonna get to sureweld till a 'wet-day' (bricklayer) I will keep your kind offer in mind Cheers Gary

Thanks again Brian, looks like a re-weld if the foot's bigger than the trailer.....possibly making it unstable, i'll wait a few more days for SBS to get back to me If it's no good then i will try Peter Blake recommended by Mickey B I will report back later...THANKS AGAIN Gary

Cheers Brian, i will give SBS another call as i need to know the width of the foot that clamps to my trailer (50mm)? Jim, not too sure if i can weld on galvinised again or re-coat????but i will leave that option open incase i can't get a new one. Picture of my old one...... Gary

or this....
