I was just posting a photo of the cabin RIB in question, belonging to the RIBnet member of 13 years standing who you appeared to have forgotten. I thought that it might have saved you from proceeding to make a complete..... ah well

Sometimes it's best to grab the lifelife, even if you don't like the person at the other end!

I did not need a lifeline as I was going to leave it at that however the photo did make a point and thanks for that.

Andre, I'm sorry, it was just a wee jest. I obviously didn't do it very well. I apologize if I've upset you, it wasn't intentional.

Hehe, It looks to have rather plush seats, doesn't it?
And thanks for the welcome. I pass through occasionally.

John, this is not the first time a thread gets highjacked. I am not too happy about this and I guess I am perhaps not alone here. Am I?

Can you please delete what is not relevant to the subject of the thread and let's move on. Unless you think all is relevant then I rest my case.

Can you do this or is it too much to ask for.

Andre, it's a discussion forum. Sometimes things drift, but that doesn't mean anything has been hijacked. I can understand that it might be frustrating but I have absolutely no intention of policing every bit of thread drift.

If you want to post about your boats without people replying then you can use the Trade announcements section.

Andre, chill out fella. You have a great product there, all of the postings on this thread have been super positive, I'm saving up for one now.

No one has had a dig, thread drift is all part of the game on Ribnet.

As often said, any publicity, is good publicity.

and jwalker apologized. That's not common and should be applauded and recognized. I'm not sure you can or should ask for much more. Sarcasm online is tough and often goes wrong. Accept his apology, shake hands, and move on. no harm no foul.

Post 17 shows a video clip from You Tube. This 4 minute clip was put together by my older brother Richard who is pretty good at this. I like it and have told him so but it would be nice to say that others also liked it. I guess most of you must have missed it Richard has put on You Tube a HD version of the same clip.
I know it would have been more interesting if the film was shot at sea but this was not possible. There are four more Parker Baltic Cruiser's in production and the third is for one of my clients (not in the UK) and for sure a trip from Gdynia Marina to Hel and back will be done
