If you want to make it to Torquay, I will accompany you the rest of the way.
PS Is that a 140hp on your 5.85m rib? Should go like stink.

Indeed its a 140 on the rib.

Thinking was to clear out the money box and buy the maximum I could afford (within what the boat can take) and I'm certainly hoping when I take delivery in march it does indeed go like stink.

I'd be delighted to meet you at Torquay and cruise down to plymouth in company. I should have room for a couple of crew mates if anybody whats the trip.

Charles -
Thank you for the welcome.

Well, why not drive to Torquay, leave your car at my place, load your sib onto my boat, go down to Plymouth together, launch your sib just outside the marina, and make a Grand Entrance?

In case you don't mind I would like to join you from Torquay also (if that's OK of course). I will tail the boat down from Gloucestershire and put in the water at Torquay or Brixam.
Cheers

Oh, P.S. Manos,
I think it much better you launch at Brixham. Very good slipways and parking.
Torquay, bit of a disaster for launching, especially as they are rebuilding the Inner Harbour at the moment.
