    Birthday Boy.

    Enjoy!
  2. Fine, you can dump your boat on mud / a slip etc. but, if you keep it attached to the car, how do you launch at Baiter ? I assume: 1. The car is is 9"/12" of water - depending on draft of boat 2. You end up dumping the boat in not enough water and waiting for the tide or damage the boat getting it back in the trailer Also, how do you control the speed of the boat going off the trailer? Too quick and it could damage the transom / transducers etc?
  3. I don't see how this could work with trailer still attached to vehicle on a shallow slip. Fine with plenty of water! Better off with movers on the wheels but they are ££££!
  4. Ah, do you have Terry's old smoker? Good thing is, you can smoke your catch before you get back to the slip!!! Good luck with it, well looked after I'm sure and low hrs. Plus they shift them motors, R
  5. also, you need the seals to be fuel proof. There shouldn't be any pressure and I would expect the tank to have a breather. You could always go a a fuel polish instead!
  6. I was going to bring cake!!! Nevermind.
  7. Pop video hey! Are you the new David Hasselhoff Col?

  10. Please let me know when the exchange has happened. Indeed we keep them as a "set". As one would be here, the others there etc! There are two sets, leads and pirks. The pirks also have 6,8,10,12 canon balls for wrecking - this is what Adam has.

  13. Blimey Charlie, bloody inboards!!! Anything preventative that could have stopped his or was it failure of the said bearing? Good to hear she is afloat! Rob
  14. Sounds good from a "unlicenced commercial" gathering if clams, but, for personal use that's a bit mean!!!
  15. No Charts was the least of his worries, no brains me thinks!

    Trailer wanted

    Dave, you need to be careful. My hull is 300kg (which is light) and engine 90kg. With 25L of fuel, 2 anchors and chasing, 100m rope, single battery and odds and sods. With trailer (as that is included in the 750kg limit) she weighed in at 810kg!!
