  1. Got one , Bought an XS500 Rib Now need to fit all the bits and pieces, rod holders etc.
  2. Why cant I get the same treatment? I am ethnic I am a minority as their is only one of me.
  3. Being a 77 year old and launching at Baiter slip is not fun. I don't have the money to pay for dry stack or a pontoon. I like the fun of a rib and it's cheap to use.
  4. Can't afford the marina fees, so want something I can put in the drive, and is easy to launch and retrieve
  5. Hi Neil ,Thats the one ,but on their website they have it at £14k. Thanks for showing Ebay listing, will have to find which is actual price. Cheers Mick.
  6. Hi Charlie , Thanks that would be much appreciated .When would suit you, I am retired so anytime is good for me. Many thanks Mick.
  7. Cant afford marina fees, Found a XS 500 rib but its in Welwyn garden a 5hr round trip so was hoping to see one locally.
  8. Looking at XS 500 from Xs ribs . Really need to see one but dont really fancy a 5hr round trip. Mick.
  9. Most of the boats sold will have been well over priced,I cant see people selling their boats for less than they bought them for. Most boats in the £7/8 thousand range are on trailers and are on the drive. so marina fees wont apply.
  10. Decided that with prices as they are, might get another rib and keep on drive
  11. People are paying silly money for overpriced boats, dont know where their money is coming from. think they will have a shock when prices go back to reality and their trying to sell. Never mind , will keep looking.
  12. Looking for a 16 1/5 ft boat with cuddy and trailer . refuse to pay the silly money a lot of people are asking. Looking around 7/8 grand. may be able to spend more for the right boat. looking to put on f pontoon. anyone hears of something pls let me know ,cash waiting. Cheers Mick.
  13. Pete at the chandlers in Parkstone Yacht Club can supply wire and crimp as req. he did one for Nigel on Lady V, works every time.
  14. Stand corrected, Ive only ever had self adj trim tabs,
  15. trim tabs wont make it go any faster, can help get on plane earlier , as Maverick said, on your size boat you need electric or hydraulic.
  16. Pete used crimps and they have not failed yet .
  17. that is the same set up on Nigels Lady V . except he didnt fit the swivel. Pete at Parkstone Yacht Club chandlers made it for him.
  18. that is K J Howells he is at cobbs. 01202 665724
  19. Don"t really need more than one bass a day , but would be nice to have choice. email sent.
  20. at least he stopped behind the white line or he might of got a ticket.😏
  21. responded.email sent to EU
  22. Sorry can no longer make this trip.
  23. Go and see Yellow Penguin He is main dealer for Suzuki & Mercury. Ive bought 2 engines from him and always get a good deal.
