A few shots of late

Finally managed to get my computer to talk to my phone again so here are a few photos from the last month which I thought were slightly interesting....
1: My new (well to me) Ribcraft 4.8. This is the best boat I've ever owned. Its fast, light, handles the sea very nicely, and its really economical to run.
2: Rather nice one of Neptune. Managed to get a cheap double jockey seat on ebay which I stuck in there. Must fit a bilge pump for when it rains overnight!!
3: Pair of 4.8s. Mine (bottom) Uni one (top). Almost identicle.
4: Camber slip (Portsmouth) a few weeks back when we had those massive tides. Later on it was almost spilling onto the road.
5: Paid a trip to Southampton to have a look at what I thought was supposed to be the QM2. Seems I made a mistake with the dates but the QE2 was in.
6: EQ2 again.
7: Popped over to Cowes after looking at the QE2. I wasn't the only ribber with lunch on my mind!

My phone takes rubbish photos...

Nice local shots Tim. You don't own that big boat as well do you? So you can take all of us Solenteers on a cruise to Florida or somewhere nice and warm POSH will do nicely !
