  1. Welcome to the Forum Barry. Answer to your question, Channel 6. What's the name of your boat?
  2. I'm hoping to get out to tbe Patch tomorrow pm.
  3. I have to admit, MegaByte has been an ornament since the beginning of November (but a well washed and polished one!!!). That won't change on Sunday, as I can't fish the Bream comp. got to go to Cornwall for the weekend to a Christening. Hopefully MegaByte will cease to be an ornament next week, weather permitting I plan on getting out Tuesday and Wednesday (now I've said that the weather will deteriorate rapidly).
  4. Mike Welcome to the Warrior 165 fleet. What engine have you got? Have you tried Trents for the wheel? There's a trailer place on the Chalwin Industrial estate that might have a suitable wheel if you end up having to buy new.
  5. Magical, Dorset rock !!....is that a new mark PJ......??? Dave Yep, looks a bit like this

  7. That must have been a sad moment.
  8. And there's never a crowd when it all goes well!!!!
  9. Agreed, you'd think the two road bridges he would have had to pass under would give a bit of a clue, unless he thought someone had dragged France a lot closer and his road atlas was out of date!! He intended carrying on, anyone heard what happened next?

    Honda Outboard

    At the moment he's got a 1991 Evinrude 50hp VRO and it's pretty quick. But due to the age of the engine and fuel pump problems he's decided to get a new one and have peace of mind.

    Honda Outboard

    Thanks Guys. I'll pass this on to him. Tomo That sounds good, a couple of others have said they consider the Honda to be bomb proof. Rob. Interesting about the max hp, there's no plate or any other info on the hull stating the max hp.
  12. Paying for one daughters wedding put a big hole in the finances, but three!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't you get them to have a combined do?
  13. My son-in-law is after a new engine for his 13ft Dell Quay Eurosport. He's considering a new Honda 50hp from PMS, anyone got any experience of Honda outboards?
  14. Hi David Welcome to the forum.
  15. I see there are two Raider 18's for sale at Parkway Marine, Sandbanks Road.
  16. Grakam Like Jim, not sure when MegaByte will be out next, but if Jim's not available, you're welcome to take a look (Upton). I'm around most days.
  17. My Warrior 165 with Suzuki DF70 and extras came to
  18. Tom I think there's a typo, need to increase pitch.
  19. I agree with Terry, clean the connections. It's unlikely two things developed faults at the same time, most likely a supply problem. Have you got a multimeter to test for a good supply?

    Naval terms

    Can't really help with those terms. The term
  21. I'm voting for the Icelandic Volcano Party. It's done more to stop immigration in 5 days than Labour has done in 10 years!!!
  22. My wife sat down on the settee next to me as I was flipping channels. She asked, 'What's on TV?' I said, 'Dust.' And then the fight started... My wife and I were watching "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" while we were in bed. I turned to her and said, "Do you want to have sex?" "No," she answered. I then said, "Is that your final answer?" She didn't even look at me this time, simply saying, "Yes." So I said, "Then I'd like to phone a friend." And then the fight started.... Saturday morning I got up early, quietly dressed, made my lunch, and slipped quietly into the garage. I hooked up the boat up to the van, and proceeded to back out into a torrential downpour. The wind was blowing 50 mph, so I pulled back into the garage, turned on the radio, and discovered that the weather would be bad all day. I went back into the house, quietly undressed, and slipped back into bed. I cuddled up to my wife's back, now with a different anticipation, and whispered, "The weather out there is terrible." My loving wife of 5 years replied, "Can you believe my stupid husband is out fishing in that?" And then the fight started... I rear-ended a car this morning. So, there we were alongside the road and slowly the other driver got out of his car. You know how sometimes you just get soooo stressed and little things just seem funny? Yeah, well I couldn't believe it.... He was a DWARF!!! He stormed over to my car, looked up at me, and shouted, "I AM NOT HAPPY!!!" So, I looked down at him and said, "Well, then which one are you?" And then the fight started..... My wife was hinting about what she wanted for our upcoming anniversary. She said, 'I want something shiny that goes from 0 to 150 in about 3 seconds.' I bought her a bathroom scale. And then the fight started... When I got home last night, my wife demanded that I take her some place expensive... so, I took her to a petrol station. And then the fight started... After retiring, I went to the Social Security office to apply for Social Security. The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver's License to verify my age. I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my wallet at home. I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and come back later. The woman said, 'Unbutton your shirt'. So I opened my shirt revealing my curly silver hair. She said, 'That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me' and she processed my Social Security application. When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at the Social Security office. She said, 'You should have dropped your pants. You might have gotten disability, too. And then the fight started... My wife and I were sitting at a table at my school reunion, and I kept staring at a drunken lady swigging her drink as she sat alone at a nearby table. My wife asked, 'Do you know her?' 'Yes,' I sighed, 'She's my old girlfriend. I understand she took to drinking right after we split up those many years ago, and I hear she hasn't been sober since.' 'My God!' says my wife, 'who would think a person could go on celebrating that long?' And then the fight started... I took my wife to a restaurant. The waiter, for some reason took my order first. "I'll have the steak, medium rare, please." He said, "Aren't you worried about the mad cow?" "Nah, she can order for herself." And then the fight started... A woman was standing nude, looking in the bedroom mirror. She was not happy with what she saw and said to her husband, "I feel horrible; I look old, fat and ugly. I really need you to pay me a compliment.' The husband replied, 'Your eyesight's damn near perfect.' And then the fight started.....

    My Dog

    I went down this morning to sign up my Dog for welfare. At first the lady said, "Dogs are not eligible to draw welfare". So I explained to her that my Dog is black, unemployed, lazy, can't speak English and has no frigging clue who his Daddy is. So she looked in her policy book to see what it takes to qualify. My Dog gets his first cheque on Friday. Damn, but this is a great country.

    Dear Lord I know that I haven't talked to You as much as I should have, but this past year You have taken away my favorite actor, Patrick Swayze, my favourite actress, Farah Fawcett, my favourite musician, Michael Jackson, and my favourite cricketer, Alec Bedser. I just wanted to let You know Lord, that my favourite Prime Minister is Gordon Brown Amen
