Maverick has the following
Icom 401 euro vhf
Furono gp36 dgps
Plotter Lowrance M3000 mono plotter with south coast/channel large cartridge
Lowrance X90 sounder
Midland CB radio
Pleased with all the kit but when funds stretch to it I would rather have a colour plotter. They give you better definition and are easier to read especially in bright sunshine
While on the subject of electronics, just 3 or 4 years ago all pbsbac member boats used cb for inter club chat. I still feel this would still be a good idea. For one it stops the vhf air waves being clogged with chit chat and two not a lot of other boats have cb radio so a little more private for talking fish. Obviously I am not suggesting that cb is instead of vhf but a supplement for social chat only.
What do you think?

I would go along with Dave's suggestion.
If you do re-antifoul you will find that the new coating will soon discolour and look faded. If the existing antifoul is sound I would leave it as it is. If its not sound you could apply a barrier primer then a coat of hard antifoul which will stand up to the rigours of launch and retreive

I believe you still have to inform your car insurer that you will be towing, also you should check your driving licence to ensure that you have the correct licence. I believe that those who have taken their test recently also have to take a supplementary test for towing

I understand that your vehicle insurer has to be informed if you are going to trail but there should be no additional cost involved. Your boat insurer should also be informed when you take out the insurance on your boat that it will be trailed. I am not 100% sure who covers your boat in transit, anyone any idea?
I will now look at my policies and check before I start trailing
