If you suspect water between the hull and floor you could fit small inspection hatches in your dec. One either side probably a quarter way from the stern of the boat. doing this will prove 2 things, whether there is water or/and foam under the floor. If its just water beneath the floor you can fit drain plugs on the outside of the stern to periodically drain it out. If there is foam in there its a much larger job as some foams absorb and retain water. Finding any leak into the hull will be a nightmare if not impossible to find without loads of time. Another thought is if you have pedestal seats to remove these and gain access to the hull from under these then repair the holes and refit the seats. Good luck

Wishing you a very happy birthday Mal, hope the walk was good

Can I collet tomorrow?

Hi Jim I'll have it if still available?

Wishing you a very happy birthday Nige

Happy Birthday Colin, have a great day

Have a great birthday Allan

Done

Neil it's your call, don't go putting it on me but that's just the way I read it. Take care and stay safe Martin

As a comparison I would have no qualms going to sea in a F4 in Madness. I would probably be doing 18knots coming to Poole and 13/14 knots going back your way

Hi Neil Coming this way you will be with the conditions and should be ok, fishing should be ok also 12-15mph in your boat should be fine but going home you will be against the elements. It shouldn't be stupidly rough but will be dependant on whether the tide will be against the wind going home.

Belated birthday Richard, hope you had a good one

Wishing you the bestest birthday Lofty

Hopefully Madness will be entering this one

Happy birthday Graham

Richard you need to put up a little itinerary of what's included in the sale and how much your asking price is

Superb fish and a brilliant write up. well done Dave and co.

Hope you're not exiting fishing Brian? Good luck with the sale Brian, I'm sure you will have no problems selling her

JIm its a pleasure to have you aboard but you forgot to mention the Wrasse and Weever I caught not that I was keeping count

Looking forward to it Jim..................I think

No problem Jim next time

I am hoping to get out fishing on Sunday. Not the best forecast with a W/NW F4 or there abouts so would only be inshore. You're welcome aboard for a run out.

That’s fantastic Jim, I’m well pleased with your efforts on madness a treasured piece of timber
