Nice boat - well set up. Looks like the mutt's - health to enjoy her Tony & Crew.

At 7.8m with 250 horsies - she won't compare to the Ribquest in any way - and the only time he'll regret that is when he's towing her to the petrol pumps

Ahhh, nope. There's a big old mug with ribbons on which says that the man is spot on.

Aside from the fact that there were two Celts playing their part in putting the Celts back in their place.
