East Coast Rivers
Nice day out on the Sunday of East Coast Rivers for a run to Southwold.
Very Very calm, which was good but dissapointing for Jools who had heard us talk so much about how rough it can get!
A few pics:
Southwold.

Its an Ocean 8.5m powered by by a 240hp Yamaha / Hydradrive, and yes its a very nice boat. Owned by a chap called Barry who has yet to discover the delights of RIB.net  She has a 2 berth cabin under the console and is a very solid and comfortable ride.
Cheers,
Alan

I dont have any but I think if you check out Jool's website www.ribpanther.co.uk and look at his BIBOA Easter cruise report gallery you'll find some more.
For example:
http://www.ribpanther.co.uk/BIBOA_Ea...s/Image27.html
With all acknowledgement for photos going to Jools in this case!
(I don't have any from ECR 'cos I was onboard her at the time!)

Not many features along the coast - so when you find one you have to take a pick......
and one for Kieth.... - I bet he could sleep under that bow!!

Looks like an Avon Redcrest or Redstart. Been around for years so should be loads around second hand.

I could put it on the transom but this would mean cutting away part of the wash deflector! Also I do not know if this will get the prop low enough!
