The new craft looks reasonably tidy. The only help I can give is that the new owner of the Wilson Flier moulds is a chap named Gary who lives Southampton way and posts on the WSF site. He seems a very helpful guy so may give advice on your particular model. Whatever you do with it good luck & may all your problems be minor ones. If you ever need a day on the water feel free to come out with us it may just give you a pick me (as in you) up

So as I can work out, original Hobbit a total right off new Hobbit is a wreck or at least needs lots of work? if so good luck with the new project and I hope it's not long before you're out there giving us your catch reports

it took me a while to work that out Jim

When I use to do local authority works the monies had to be allocated against projects but not necessarily spent, don't know if their procurement procedures are the same now.

Happy birthday PJ

Pick any day without a y in it

New date for this comp is Sunday 7th January

Happy birthday both

Thanks Mick it would be no good for my dingy

Short or long shaft?

Also if the rope is too long the buoy smacks your boat. I would say you need no more than 30cm in fact on smaller boats I actually had no line, just the buoy and alderney ring Martin

I think the main coincidence was that the tide began ebbing Jim

Mariners are advised that maintenance dredging is planned to commence on Wednesday 20th December to ensure depths are as advertised. The areas to be dredged are the ‘Turning Basin’ and the ‘Little Channel’ and all spoil will be deposited at the Swanage spoil ground. The dredger ‘Coasta Verde’ will be operating on a 24 hours basis for approximately ten days, will display appropriate light and shape signals and will maintain a listening watch on VHF channel 14. Mariners are requested to give this vessel a wide berth while dredging. Mariners are reminded that Radar, AIS, CCTV, telephone and VHF channels are recorded.
