  1. Well, the put your minds at rest and to answer the guesses in my last post - yes, I had bought a new boat, and yes, it was a Warrior 175. However... despote leaving a 10% deposit, it arrived back in this mornings post with a short letter explaining that circumstances had 'changed' and that the boat wasnt available any longer The guy did howver include a cheque to cover my costs. That's 2 boats that have been pulled from under me in as many months! To be honest I'm pretty f$$ked off about the whole thing and cant really be bothered to look around anymore. A thoroughly pi
  2. OK, OK! .... I'll tell you what it is.... It's my new boat! and it's coming home on Sat!
  3. I thought Gordon was busy on Sat??....
  4. I may be up for a trip Sunday.... .........
  5. Its a bigger danger than we think. A few years back one of the Weymouth fleet hit a container kid channel en-route to Alderney, it smashed the bow, but didnt breach the forward bulkhead. He managed to link back to Weymouth. I have seen numerous sleepers and large flotsam and jetsom, fortunatly our small boats whilst being relitively fragile, are pretty nimble and easy to manouvre.
  6. I agree. However can I make the suggrstion that the link for reporting catches is made as easily accesable and obvious as possible?

  8. Quite out of the blue a new era may have dawned....
  9. Gary, Have a chat with Tom at SMB, I'm sure he will knwo the vessel and the owners?? Gordon M has also had problems starting his Etec recently, maybe worth a compare of notes? Adam
  10. Hi, Welcome to our forum. The Quicksilver 640 has been discussed a few times in the past already: http://www.pbsbac.co.uk/forums/index.php?s...quicksilver+640 http://www.pbsbac.co.uk/forums/index.php?s...quicksilver+640 http://www.pbsbac.co.uk/forums/index.php?a...quicksilver+640 Overall to sum up, they seem a reasonable boat but somewhat dogged by quality issues. Have you considered any of the other pilothouses? Adam

    Boat Repair

    Easy! Just needs re-flow coating. Have a word with Charlie, I'm sure he has used loads of this over the past few months.

    Surveys

    ...Its the best way Jas - I found out the hard way
  16. Before BW went on Sat, I emptied all that was not going with her. CHRIST!! I never knew I carried so much extra weight. The two anchors and warp must have weighed close to 100lb as I coulnt lift the barrel - had to roll it to the garage!! This is usually the time of year used to empty the boat, check and re-do the electrical connections, have the engine serviced and do any jobs that have been nagging all season - its the best way and saves having to do it when the bass arrive!!

    Plotter Screen

    A damp lint free cloth. Yes, contact lens cleaner would be ideal - if its good enough for eyes, then I'm sure it will do a plotter screen. However if you go for the screen protector it solves all of these issues!
  18. Charlie, Give me a call. One of our companies is the 3rd largest supplier of electrical wholesale in the UK. I havent got a scooby, but I know a man who will. I'll also happily do you staff rates on whatever it is you need. Adam

    20-25k Boat

    Are you sure Jas?? I have just looked into a service on the engine in my chosen next boat and it is more than 10x the cost of a service on my outboard....
  20. What can I say.... It beats working! and if i'm not working, I'm usually fishing....
  21. ...Yep, that another memory! As its late and the vino has taken a hammering - a few more memories: - Kimmeridge Sept 04 - Ripps x 6 - Having to come back from the ripps as the deck and fish box were full of cod - June 06 - Burnham - 32lb Cod part of 5 cod haul - Dec 05 - Too many bass trips to mention...but - 2 x 11lb bass in the same drift, July 06 - Club record stingray - 04' Good times!
  22. ..... you've got me going now!!! Good post Bob - yep, Ive had some good times on her and it was kinda wierd watching her being towed off down the road this morning - even the wad of cash didnt soften the blow. There cant be many Warriors that have been through the trips (and landed the fish) that BW did. I did a search from the beginning of the website on 'Blue Warrior' and I had actually forgottern many of the trips/events etc that she has been through. Anyway onwards and upwards - off to sea test a possible replacement 2moro....

A recent scientific study found that women find different male faces attractive depending on where they are in their menstrual cycle. For example, when a woman is ovulating she will prefer a man with rugged, masculine features. However when she is menstruating, she prefers a man doused in petrol and set on fire, with scissors stuck in his eye and a cricket stump shoved up his backside.
  24. That's it.... Blue Warrior has gone, on her way down to Plymouth as we speak. End of an era... I feel quite nostalgic really...
