I would love to Louise, but I am not allowed to have any time off in December due to having a student supermarket job, what with the shortage of lard and everything! We will have to try and do something in the new year.

It's a shame you can't make this trip Alex. You would be very welcome on Blue Ice next time we are out (not sure when yet!). We're hoping to take Blue Ice to the south/east coast sometime and meet up with Wayne, Phil, Bilge Rat, Daniel TD5, Rich L and anyone else out that way. Will post a thread if we manage to organise something!

P.S. Sorry for interrupting your thread again, Tim!

Everyone with a rib always wants a bigger one Zippy. You've got a very up- together and capable rib there and I see you've already caught the bug and started adding to it!

Hi Dave B,


Saw your boat on the trailer when I was over there filming, must have been just after you got it! Say Hi to Dave for me (forgot his surname) who is also on the crew of the St Mary life boat - he was a great skipper and made the job a lot easier despite the Directors best efforts to mess us around!

1.Cormorant being pulled out at Morston on the North Norfolk Coast. This "slipway" is renowned for its mud. We've had to have the car pulled out by a Landy twice now!

2. Sitting on the bar at Blakeney. Only accessable by boat or five mile walk.

3. Sitting on the trailer after an outing in the rain.

More pics! this is great.

Ridraff, Have you sold the shakey yet? I noticed it was on boatsandoutboards. That looks like perfect wakeboarding weather, I love it when its like that!

Anyone have any pics of interesting DIY mods? Also, if you think everyone already knows what your boat looks like, post it anyway, because newbies won't know!

Cheers

Tim
