Happy birthday Mal Hope you had a good one Best wishes Tony

Well done guys on getting out I nearly finished fitting my new Raymarine Dragonfly Had to unfit the previous fish finder, having spent an hour releasing the transducer cable discovered transducer under water bag, never seen this before. Spent the next hour releasing the Garmin transducer and removing the wiring. Now have Garmin colour fish finder for sale. There is still a through hull transducer with wiring to the helm, just in case, did not know there were 3 transducers! Having fitted the Raymarine unit in the helm, cable from transducer 2 feet too short. Extension cable, 10m , is £30, Force4 managed to get one in today. Hopefully can get unit going at weekend. If so will be getting out to patch for fish. Tony PS is Jacob Australian now?

I have a delta anchor with 25m 8mm Chain and rope on my windlass , great for watching the air show or anchoring in the harbour, I have 10m of 8mm chain and 175 m of 14mm multi plait for my deep water anchor which I retrieve with An Alderney ring, the only sensible way to anchor in deep water. Tony

I am going to a family meal at the Priory so sadly will miss this opportunity Tony

She is nearly fixed but that does not stop the heater working, especially on the pontoon

Did it go round the Isle of grain in the Thames estuary?

Not if you have a heater! Tony

Scrap yards will no longer sell lead to the public Very frustrating You need to find a builder and get the spare flashing Keep the doors open when melting Tony

Hi Paul Have a great day Tony

Hi Nigel Hope you had a good day You certainly had the weather for it Tony

Nice to see you out there today Nigel I have joined the nearly mended boat section as well. Tony

Hi Rob You are welcome, I will await your call BAG GONE TO A GOOD HOME

I am tidying my garage and have found my Penn Affinity Tackle bag Good condition it needs a good home, small donation to HOW http://www.gofishing.co.uk/Sea-Angler/Section/Tackle2/Sea-Angler-Fishing-Tackle/Fishing-Accessories/Luggage/Penn-Affinity-Gear-Bag/ Call me on 07733101037 if interested Tony

If I join the mended boat club I will be fishing Tony

Bad news spreads quickly

Have just moved from Rockley to COBBS, have enjoyed 7 years at Rockley but want the convenience of being on the water. A trestle is great for working on the boat, anodes and anti fouling not a problem, but competing for a place on the pontoon at launch and On return with low level sports boats no longer worth the effort. Pontoon at COBBS allows for social as well angling requirements. Once bridge mastered a bit of planning avoids problems. £3,300 at COBBS compared with £2600 at Rockley (£8 a week extra at COBBS) Already feels better and discount fuel and free access to other MDL marinas available Tony

Hope you had a good day Best wishes Tony D

A very sad day He was a legend Our condolences to his family and friends Tony
