Well Done guys sounds like you made the most of a weather windoe. Gordon I suspect you are correct ref file size. Reduce there size in you pic programme or ms paint then load up Martin

Mike I seem to remember seagull being 12:1 as you say but later I think they changed it to 25:1 on later models, not sure when this happened though

Adam You should have come to the meeting, you would probably know the answer by now and not have to put a poll up BTW its none of those listed Martin

Jason Listen to the guys on her (as I know you do) especially All, Gordon and Tony. Do try as many variants of boat as you can before making your decision and keep asking for advice.. it will be forthcoming Martin

Nope not telling, well not just yet but as soon as I'm sure you will be the first, I mean second to know (Tom already knows) BTW Adam pm's will get you nowhere Tease indeed as if I would Martin

Lots of very good points brought up there Rich. Perhaps a little harsh ref the point on articles about clubs. Our club for instance has had I believe 3 large articles over a 3 year period so we can't really grumble on that one. Hopefully we will be able to have the same relationship with Dave as we had with Jim? only time will tell Martin

Yep the end of an era is nigh Nope don't ask cause I won't be telling just yet updates soon Martin

mmm Terry when you get the message look at the yellow line just below your navigation bar, you will see a question mark with a message stating: This website is using s scripted window to ask you for information. If you trust this website, click here to allow scripted windows... Click on this message as instructed and it will work I think the problem has happened because of security updates in the new operating system from gates and co Martin

My view is that nothing in life is perfect with some things being less perfect than others. BFM is not perfect but imho it is more perfect than most if not all other angling mags, why? because it deals with the kind of fishing we as boat owners do. Not all the articles in each edition interest me and if they did then someone else would probably be dissapointed. How does the old saying go..."you can't please all the people all the time" Dave if your reading this just do your job to the best of your ability or at least the best the owners will let you do. BFM is still a great read especially for newbies but those that are longer in the tooth will obviously be harder to please Martin

Hi Pete Good to see you back on here. Don't forget to update your email address with Bob F (membership sec) and on this forum. You could miss out on usefull info if not done Martin

Tom I could possibly be available to take my boat out as a camera boat or drive one of yours? Let me know Martin

or use a compass (drawing type) to get the size then read it off a tape or wait until Thursday and use Trevors Vernier/caliper.

Why not try putting your eyes on and using a tape measure works for me

Tom Thanks for that I have sent Pete an email to that effect but as a courtesy I had to approach SMB first Martin

Rich Get the pouches and keep the receipt the club can pay for these Martin

Terry When you say the boat finds it hard to plane, do you still get full revs? if thats the case it maybe your rubber insert thingy in the prop come loose (forget what its called) Martin

Hi Gary and welcome to our foum. Our match dates for 2007 are not put together until our committee meeting in January. As soon as I know when they are will forward them to you Martin

Well said Simon The safest way is the best way but you pays your money you takes your choice

Nice one Trevor Glad to hear Otter is now 100% Martin

Rich Nice one looks lubberley Good tactics BTW not telling anyone the date of the comp For those club members that would like a chance to win the date is Sunday 17th December Martin

oh forgot to say what I thought about the site. Good idea in principle but will only be as good as the information submitted. With a lot of info the site it looks like it might become a little cluttered. Think I'll stay with the reports on this site, more relevant and local to us Martin

Hmmm found my house and zoomed in, can even see a vehicle in my drive. I expect the military would have better definition and could even pick me out washing the vehicle....sorta worrying aint it
