  1. Rob more like long haul up that hill
  2. But Terry I don't eat Launce rare steaks are much better
  3. Adam AWOL has a 4 bladed prop. Last prop I was running was a 14.25" dia by 21deg 3 blade we now have a 15.25" by 18deg pitch 4 blade prop The main benefit for me is the ability to cruise at lower speed (yeh yeh go on you lot take the pee ) without falling off the plane so easily. Hole shot is much more aggresive and for me top end is higher though I would say this is because my old prop was carp. I do though suffer from more prop torque so need to use more trim tab or move some kit around. Would I go back to three blades? definately not with this boat.

  9. Mark, I use a polishing machine (not a cheap orbital there a waste of time) with G3 on a sponge head then polish put on by hand and buffed off with a mop on the machine then wax by hand laced with copious amounts of elbow grease. It takes a serious amount of time ie a day per side once a year but worth it. The moral of this story is dark hulled boats can be hard work but worth it when their shiney Martin

  15. Hi All I did start a thread on the old site regarding the WSF Weymouth meet which is being held from 8th - 15th June. Purpose of this thread is to get confirmation of those that are def interested and what their plans are likely be ie part or all the time? Dean and I are planning to go either the first (preferred) week end from the sat through to the Tuesday or if weather scuppers that the following weekend. Reason for this second thread is I am unable to find the old thread here and haven't access to the old site now. Terry the organiser is trying to get an idea of numbers so he can forewarn the HM of approximate numbers hence this new thread. Thanks in advance Martin
  16. You can change your avatar in your settings top right of the board. I have done this one for you but you can change at anytime you like Martin
  17. James it sounds like you have not logged off of the old site properly which causes a conflict here. As all traffic has now been sent to here you cannot go back there to log off so Paul will have to deal with it for you Martin
  18. James Click on Gallery you should then see top right of the page an oblong box marked upload. If you can see this just click and the rest is self explanatory if you can't see then post back here Martin
  19. From the perspective of someone that nearly always uses a PC and having got use to using it I much prefer this invision board over the vbulletin boards I visit. One site has recently updated their previous vbulletin to the latest version and have had all sorts of problems, that said though they don't have a PD IT dept
