Mike It might be too late, but have a word with Martin (Maverick) about the rope.

The bumps are visible in the second photo.

That's him

I'll ask my son-in-law, who repaired his boat, he did a brilliant job at a very reasonable price. He was near the railway bridge on Sandbanks Road, but I think he's moved to new premises, I'll try to find out tomorrow.

Here's another, which is a variation on "Tom's Shambles Plaice Rig". Depending on the depth of water I sometimes add a small watch weight above the spoon.

As we all use fuel in our boats you might like to consider signing the petition. When VAT was temporarily reduced to 15%, the Chancellor added 2% duty to fuel to offset the reduction in tax collected from motorists. Now that VAT has been increased to 17.5% again this hidden tax has not been removed - hence recent rises in your fuel costs. Sign the petition at the link below to have this stealth tax removed! Please pass this on to your friends - the more the merrier. Happy boating! http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/DutyReduction/ Post approved by PaulJ

A quick search of the site brought up this: http://www.pbsbac.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=5044 And then there's this: I'm not sure where I found this originally, but it's Toms Shambles Plaice Rig.

Cobbs is

I wondered where that was going I'll have to come and have a look.

Gary I launch my 165 at Cobbs, it's a piece of cake, I can do it single handed. But I have got a 4x4 (Nissan Terrano). I don't even get the tyres wet. Have a word with Martin (Maverick) he used to launch a Warrior 195 at Cobbs. Jim I know my bridge looks bare, I'm still working on (should that be "sucking up to") Diane. How much extra height do they add, I'm thinking about getting under Poole Bridge?

Gary Adam used to own one, I'm sure he'll be along soon with all the info you need. I'd have thought 850kg would be the hull, less engine etc.

No wonder I got the wrong picture, that wasn't in my copy of the Echo for Thursday 4th, I've been diddled!!!!

I assume you mean this, ooops, I must try harder.

I've got it.

Graham You have a pm.

Graham What sort of anchor do you use on a kayak? I've got a 2kg folding anchor that you're welcome to if it's any good to you.

Mike At last nights meeting Adam said the list was now done and would be posted on this site soon.

Happy Birthday Paul
