Maverick Martin

Staff at Parkstone are definately helpful but not sure about the security there. In my short stay I have heard lots of mumblings of things going missing, cctv that doesn't work or cover all the yard. Also the main issue for me at Parkstone is the blooming security gate that never works and on the odd occasion it does the personell gate is always left open However these issues wouldnt effect a swinging mooring Martin

For short-term storage then mooring would be a cheaper option, I don't think you can pay for short-term dry stack, prices this are per year. As Mike says if its just storage your after there maybe other options. You would though need a trailer because otherwise transportation costs could prove prohibitive Martin

You would be charged for all protruding bits including the leg or outboard if you have one Can't find the rate chart for rockley but will keep looking Martin

Doubtful as the channel widening and deepning took place last year. Martin

No Alun didn't wet a line we just run up the engine and fueled up ready for when the weather improves Martin

Hi Jason The cheapest dry stack in Poole by far is Rockley park . Let us know the size of your boat and I'll find out prices for you. Martin

The weather this week end certaily wasn't favourable for small boats. We took "Awol" for a spin through the harbour and down the swash on sunday and it was still very gusty, that was pleasant enough but further out it most certainly was not nice

Well done Duncan for reaching the half way mark relatively unscathed Happy birthday Martin

This thread upsets me cause I can still see Maverick on the drive oh the memories....can't wait to make some more if ever the weather improves Martin

works for me to but does take a little while to upload

Good luck Sam hope you get the job Martin

Nice one Adam Look forward to seeing your new pride and joy on the water. Give us a shout if your launching from Poole and I'll try and get out to take some pickies Martin

Well done Duncan you can pick up the rod next time your down here Martin

Well done Adam another full page spread. I must say the photos look pretty damn cool to Martin

Not quite sure what you meen but is it this http://www.pbsbac.co.uk/forums/index.php?s...hl=catch+report Martin

Seamouse how many hulls have you destroyed ? Martin

Hi toerag Thanks for the report and I look forward to seeing the pics. Our club would appreciate if you would keep us informed of the fishing on your side as we are planning a trip or two in our boats this year. As an aside some of the Poole and Weymouth boats have been reporting similar catches from wrecks on our side. Might give them a go in the next 3/4 weeks myself Cheers Martin

I would favour boat 2 and my reasoning is: If you just smack a larger engine into the 695 I think you might end up with a boat that would slam alot at the proposed cruising speed of say 22-24knots. A norrower beam would restrict accomodation very slightly but not so as you would notice but it would allow a deeper V that would give a higher more comfortable cruising speed. You would also be in a position to cater for more disciplines of boating ie mooring/pontooning and trailering. Tom if Jeanneau had a boat similar to the 695 with higher cruising speeds you know I would have purchased one over the Karnic that I finally decided on. There isn't yet a perfect boat on the market for me and I doubt there ever will be but heres hopeing Martin
