Finally, Black Jack reaches....
Pwllheli. Following Strom Force winds on the South coast Black Jack arrives in North Wales on a perfect day for some slightly more sedate trials with friends and family.
The proud "dad"..........

On our way......
at 44 knots.......running in speed !!! Ian - Debs - Christian and MeMe.
Thanks to Black Jack and crew for taking MeMe and I out on your first launch in N.W. we both thoroughly enjoyed it. Unfortunately my enjoyment was slightly tainted when, as we drove away from the marina my daughter turned to me and said "Daddy, why isn't our boat that good" !

LOOK OUT!! Ian's on the water!!
Nice boat Ian!!
Just try to keep a good look out in future!!
As a few people found out on Saturday on a Level 2 course at PPT when Ian decided to drive over the top of Jono G's 6m pro sport and give the lads a better view of Black Jack's hull!!
So a little tip for you all!!
If you see a 7.5M black rib near you - WATCH OUT!
Ian J

I thought they'd taken pacing off the Level 2 syllabus?

Luckily no pictures, still getting the hang of the throttle control.
Never look at the engine and wonder why it is smoking whilst moving the throttle on a new control box!!!

Hope you've got the hang of that other vital boat control - the steering wheel!!

They seem to go hand in hand. But the 250 doesn't half pack a punch!

Has your throttle been mounted upside down, or are all Suzuki throttles like that (ie the "stick" bit to the left of the box)?
