I know you're steering wheels are on the wrong side, but shouldn't the thing be hitched to the back of the car?

Good looking rig,

where do you intend launching next Saturday? If you bring it over to the west coast (largs) one or two of us are bound to be out, we'll take some video if you like.

Weather is not looking too good for the Forth this weekend but if it is few of us might well be about on the Sunday... you planing to launch from the Hawes or from Port Edgar?

I was going to use the Hawes as I am reliably informed that no one is around just now and it saves the launching fee

Will be accompanied by my bruv (5mtr Humber)

Jizm - pm'ed you


Launched saturday about 3 PM from Port Edgar. roughest water I've ever been out on, but no complaints from me - I stayed dry although the other 5 on board got a bit moist . Looking forward to a bit calmer conditions next time.

How rude!

with Bob's hair colour I'd have said more 'orange-utan' !

Three-rex, Bob's (randski) and now your boat were the topic of conversation last time us SW nobbers were out, the comments were very favourable particularly in regard to its rough sea capability and it not being disgraced in company of a 6.5 Osprey and a 5.85 Ribcraft. Good luck with her
