Maverick Martin

And me

I'll call you early next week, Thanks

Hi Allan, not bothered whether boxed or bagged, I can collect but not until after the weekend. Would you rather cash or transfer? pm me details if its transfer

Ooh a bit of a Diva are we

1 for me please Allan

Happy birthday Lofty hope you have a great day

That sounds cool Chris even jet skis can't do that

Chris in Kingfisher enjoying a bit of wakeboarding behind Madness

Yes it was me that responded to you however wasn't fishing as had the grandchildren aboard all wanting to swim

Was it you that came behind Madness in Studland on Saturday? If so you should have shouted out for a coffee, a chat or something stronger :-) If it was it's a nice looking boat you have

the thing is it maybe flat when you first go out but weather can deteriorate really quickly. Don’t forget the affect tides can have on the water especially with wind against tide. A prime example is the swash channel with an flood tide running with easterly winds can be comfortable. When you return from wherever you have been the same easterly wind against an Edd tide could be horrible

Bayliner sold off the Trophy mark years ago. The original Bayliner trophies were lower quality but the newer Trophy (without bayliner prefix) are much better Personally I love that style of boat even with covers. I used to own a Karnic 2460 with covers and she looked after us in all weathers That boat is quite a bit larger than you're looking at but they do a 2260 which is smaller and outboard powered, maybe worth a look. Personally I would not buy a bowrider for fishing as in the rough stuff everything that comes over the bow would go throughout the boat also not a lot of protection for inclement weather. Exciting times especially when the wife takes an interest. Good hunting and do, as you move along the purchasing bus ask all the questions you have here. There's more experience in the club than you could shake a stick at :-)

You lucky boy Terry, another toy to play with. you'll soon need a bigger pram lol

Wishing you a happy birthday Neil, trust it's been a goodun

Jerry, no thanks I'll wait until you have perfected the design and have your new one

They could have Charlie but he kept muttering about how expensive it would be and that it would cost lots and they were busy and and, so I got the impression he wasn't interested. I'm guessing he saw I had work clothes on and judged I couldn't afford his services, his loss someone else's gain

Just a thought, we have all been going down the cable theory route but do you think chain might work instead of wire? After all we are only trying to get a swivel to turn the anchor the right way BTW Charlie called in to see XP rigging and they were not interested although he did point me elsewhere

Allan thanks for the kind offer but apart from Madness being out of action I had already made evening arrangements for sat. Would love to some other time

Hum this is something I have been wanting to try but never got around to and now Madness is broke. She has no juice and am awaiting the return of my alternator which is being rewound

Hi Adam I am very interested in making a trip up to Portland this year however I can't do next weekend but going forward would be interested in going there either on our own or with others. Also there is a proposed WSF meet at Portland starting the weekend of the 29th August. I have been watching this evolve but as yet not put my name down for it but weather permitting would do that WSF meet

Boating is total Madness and I love mine lol

Yes I would also like to know before having mine made

Thanks Toerag very kind of you to update us. I think that sadly we be will giving our foray over the channel a miss this year but will hopefully return next year

Is this what you want What does AC -1200/1900/3200 mean to deep for me lol
