I thought species hunt was a boat comp not individual, or am I confusing with the Open!?!?

Me painting the bog! I get all the best jobs.

I thought anything caught was a potential "record" but the issue with mini species is that weighing a 5oz fish at sea was near on impossible.

I'll try and remember to bring that sample I have tomorrow!!! I maybe a little late, I'm shattered!

That or similar is in this years plan Stuie!!!

Right! Now for a club record!!!!

What did it taste like? Did you get a pic?

Happy Burp Day! I bet none of the cakes make it to the office!! (Many cakes were killed in the making of Jim this age)

You spoil me Ad!

All, The Open will be held on the 27th June as per originally proposed. An alternative date was proposed, but some of our regular entrants and valued members \ contributors could not make the change. So, I'm happy, and i hope you all are too! Thanks, Rob

Just be wary of the trailer, a guy I knew had a Orkney 440 an after a few years he had a look at the trailer to maintain it. One bit was a bit "soft", and that because someone had replaced part of the neck with wood and painted it with silver hamerite!!!!!

I have seen one of those before, but I flushed it! [emoji12]

Well done Steve and helpers! Yes, watching the weather in the lead up to a comp you have organised is always a testing time! Looked lovely from the cliffs, almost mill pond close in!

Nice!!!!!!

Boom Boom!

My latest kit came via Matt from MES (friend of the club) - MES are now part of Cactusnav.com Great service and price!!

A friend of mine took delivery of a new craft today at Cobbs. I was on hand to help get it back to Sandbanks Yacht Company Marina/Dryberth today. There were a few white horses on the harbour as we drove past this morning, but by the time we had filled her to the brim & had the hand over it was much more pleasant. We had to give it the blast round shell bay to test the performance (though staying below 4500 due to running in). Nudging 40knts Old Harry isn't as far as you think! And that's not pushing it! We did some great tight turns and had it slipping a bit, what a piece of kit. Colbalt 223 with a 5.7l V8 350Mag, no rod holders but he does want to go mackerelling in the summer, assuming we don't scare them off on arrival! Just nice to be out and the weather held ok. Lunch and a well earned beer at the Clubhouse / bar, result!

Depending on your unit could you add LowranceStructureScan?

I think there is a lack of output for dsc, but could be wrong. Maybe add it and have 2if you have got room. Mal and Graham S had them I think.

It used to be "prop revs" in Cobbs, are they the same Brian?

JV will need a shoe rack and sink on deck! No grubby mitts or shoe in the cabin!

My natural location: Post heavy lunch of fish and chips & beer: Ad with the router: Enjoying the new look: Now wacked after 10 hrs of hard labour!

Nice, save some for me to do!!!
