Mike (Bassncod) made mine Adam. Dunno how the quality compares to the

Well done Nigel ..... just as well some have got a bit of a lead on the species hunt cos i've no doubt they're gonna need it! I looked this morning, they look like a very very nice piece of kit!

you sound like you'll fit in well here Barto

A $3,000 handling fee if cancelled over 120 days before.

eh??? They need to talk to Dom ..... i've just swapped my insurance from my raider to this new boat and got better range cover for less money

I use SITA lofty. Annual agreement, around

The Rowridge TV transmitter is 187 met tall (and similar structure to the one proposed). It really needs a sharp eye to be able to see it from Milford on Sea, which is around 10 miles away.

I can drop it up to yours tomorrow. Do you still have the boat on your drive?

I have a 19 on there at the moment and I have a 21 as a spare. Brian if you can put it to use you are welcome to it. I am sure you have donated to the RNLI over the years. Graham.

I have a spare but a nice shiny stainless one As for the trials Nuff said

I have a suzuki 115 prop. Came as an extra with my engine. It is the standard one that came with the engine I believe and is stamped 3 x 14 x 21 (whatever that means). It has a TINY blemish on the edge of one blade but i'm thinking it would be ideal for any of you guys that keep damaging yours on that Mudeford Run. Iv'e stuck it on ebay but if any members want it give me a shout. A donation to the RNLI will buy it. Graham.

My dogs love them (well the boy dog does)

Dont get too excited .... theres plenty of time for that to change again!

Although I have no need to use these bridges (as a mariner) I think you have said what most mariners are thinking Rich. With the two bridges so close together there was ALWAYS going to be a bottle neck in the holding area and if I was in the Cobbs Quay area I am sure I would be thinking of moving.

Unbelievable! I hope the insurance are forthcoming but I can imagine it's much more personal than just money. Good luck.

Thanks for the comments lads. To be honest, I'm pleased with how shes looking but disappointed with the quality of my work. I'm no chippy! I'm no painter! and i'm certainly not a fibreglasser! But as my mates that were very keen on helping have been nowhere to be seen during the rebuild it has been all me (apart from a couple of days where one mate was about). Some of it has been in the freezing cold and rain when i really should have stopped and waited for better weather but as it was such a slow job i knew i needed to crack on with it. I have justified it to myself with the excuse that this is a FISHING boat. It looks like a FISHING boat, the finish is good enough for a FISHING boat and if it gives me as much luck as my old one did then I will be a very happy fisherman. Am looking forward to seeing her off my back yard so I can get my parking spaces back tho!

Just don't look too close Martin .... The pictures do the quality of my work great justice!

It's always nice picking up an oar in Swanage Well done for getting out ..... hopefully I will actually get to do some fishing soon.

In my enthusiasm I bought too many hatches for my project. So this one is surplus to my requirements. Outside measurements are 52CM X 46CM the opening is 41.5 X 36 (please remember my measuring is not great so have a look before you part with your pennies. It cost me

At the risk of boring the waders off you i think i'm pretty nearly there! The dash and electronics are all in and the cabin is complete If you look at the first page of this thread you will see the state of the floor when I got her .... this is her now (The fuel tank is temporary while I decide how (or if) it's best to utilise the 2 huge built in tanks) She's being low loaded down to Rockley on Tuesday for the fitting of the engine then with a tiny bit of luck we should be able to do a few trials next weekend

I have been reading this threade with interest and am wondering if there is a difference between the standard SLAMMER and the LIVE LINER? It's nearly time to tart up my fishing box :-) and does anyone have any experience of this one? http://www.planetseafishing.com/reviews/P70/

Bloody hell Jim .... ANOTHER ONE???? Enjoy it

A man bought a porsche convertible and was out for a nice evening drive. The top was down, the breeze was blowing through what was left of his hair and he decided to open her up. As the needle jumped up to 100 mph, he suddenly saw flashing blue lights behind him. "There's no way they can catch a Porsche," he thought to himself and opened her up further. The needle hit 110, 120.... Then the reality of the situation hit him. "What am I doing?" he thought and pulled over. The cop came up to him, took his license without a word and examined it and the car. "It's been a long day, this is the end of my shift, I don't feel like more paperwork, so if you can give me an excuse for your driving that fast that I haven't heard before, you can go." The man thinks for a second and says, "Last week my wife ran off with a cop. I was afraid you were trying to give her back!" "Have a nice day," said the officer.
