Pete, I'm coming down on my own currently so you have the choice of the faster blue one or the slower grey one!

Before Whisper starts whining like a girl Let me refer you to Whispers video Jolly to the Folly.....Kicked his a$$

Good point ...I'll try again ;

can I climb on board on dry land , reverse off the trailer, drive aorund while you do all the hard work with cars and trailers then you can jump on your own boat as I scream past ?

I'll add another caveat ---'someone' is supposed to be looking at the SR ' at the weekend' but no reply as to my question of when ? ...watch this space .....

hmmm, this needs some consideration, at the moment I am thinking going round in circles, decent tides so we could pop out to the Needles for some wave jumping but need to do that early doors. I don't want to do a Trevor G or worse an Avocet.

I will have a think while having "quality time" with the Mrs while she watches Eastenders, Coronation Street the list goes on

Dude, at the moment anything is faster than mine, the engine is still broke and it has been testing quite a few people's patience
