Got mine some time ago from MAILSPEEDMARINE this link should work

http://www.mailspeedmarine.com/detai...le&QLID=OS-FLR

They were £25 at the time but have now gone up. Although they don not mention it in the brocure or on their website they do exsist in two sizes, because i got an odd bunch when i ordered.

If you want the sizes let me know and i'll measure one, although i think i only have a large one at home.

How are you going to attach them to the A-Frame Kev? I'm just about to have some custom brackets made myself...

Oh, and a belated merry christmas to you!

Hi Stuart,

You made it back from Wales in one piece. Consider them sold, I came over to see you at Saxon Wharf this morning. But you were not there still recovering? left a call on your mobile.

Give me a call when you are back to work and I will arrange to collect and deliver said light board.

Cheers

No I am not back from Wales yet. My nickname for my mum is the Project Manager and she had a lot of tasks for me to do when I came home. I obviously love her so they gotta get done!

I am doing good so far I have rewired her Loft Extension fitted a new burglar alarm, fitted mains powered smoke alarms, illumnated the rear garden amd wired in a new DVD (Classic statement = how many new TV channels will this DVD player give me)

Fortunately she did let me have up till 16:00 Boxing day off.

See you all in 2005

Cheers Stu

Do you not like us any more, then? Or do you have big plans that we should know about? Round the world trip perhaps? Or maybe you're planning to sleep thro' the whole year after consuming one too many bottles of cider?

Hi Pete & Stuart,

Sorry guys it has been buried in my Garage. Stuart as I live in Pompey and just across the water from Pete7, would you like me to deliver direct to Pete7 ?

I will give Pete7 a call to sort out. Stuart when are you back in Saxon Wharf? let me know and I will pop over to collect bottles.

Cheers.

Thanks for the offer, Jelly Baby

But everybody has got lightboards they are just all not the ones belonging to the people originally. I've still got someones number plate left over.

Katleen Doyle is having a party over at the cabin on the 17th if you are interested she made us tidy up the yard today to prepare for it!

Hi everyone,

Just a quick note to let you know that I now have 2 new Poly bottles to fix to the "A" Frame, thanks Stuart.

Next step Brackets and welding to "A" Frame.

Looking at the pictures Of Chris's Falcon on the Manos's Falcon thread I noticed 2 things It's a Very nice looking boat but the Bottle Holders were shaped so that the bottles had to be inserted Horizontally from the front. I can't say that I've noticed this on a boat befroe but it seems a much more sensible way of mounting them.

Daniel · 07 January 2004, 00:32

I noticed that too, good idea. I'm getting some brackets made shortly for my A-Frame so might consider that configuration. Kevin - measure the sides of the bottles to see if they are the same as mine, it would seam cheaper per unit to get 4 holders made not 2.
