Following careful negotiation of the strong tide and shoals in the entrance to Woodbridge Haven at the mouth of the Deben, lunch was held off Felixstowe Ferry sailing club just a little way up the estuary.

On full throttle for much of the day despite some extremely lumpy conditions in the North Sea, Wayne finally slowed down enough to have his picture taken

A shot of Peter's beautiful sounding and extremely potent Evinrude Ficht 90, spoilt only by some prat in a 4.0m Searider

Absolutely, and even if I can't make my mind up about what my next RIB's going to be, it's simply going to have to have an Evinrude Ficht on the tail for the wail alone

Daniel's put more hours on his new Valiant in 3 weeks than some people do in a year! And it took him nearly three hours to drive to Suffolk this morning!

Wayne Rogers · 29 May 2004, 20:43

Phil sent some photos to you E-Mail address can you put them on the forum for me it keeps telling me my files are to big.

Thanks

I see you've allready found them I've got some more if you wan't them?

Daniel · 29 May 2004, 20:44

Looks like you guys had a great time.

Of course you guys will have noticed me missing! Sorry, after all i kicked up such a fuss to let me come!

Promlems with water in the fuel - all related to recent shot fuel sender gasket i guess. Now corrected and hope to see anyone who is out and about tommorow for the air show.

Phil Davies · 29 May 2004, 20:45

I keep thinking I'd like a bigger RIB, but I'd still have to keep this little Searider - it's a real hoot and it loves the rough stuff.

Wayne Rogers · 29 May 2004, 21:02

Peters is a Wildcat. How do I do these photo's Phil???

Your failure to turn up has been duly recorded by the sub-5 committee, Daniel, and despite extenuating circumstances it is felt that we are left with little alternative but to deduct an unspecified amount of points from your Ribnet reputation, to be determined at the discretion of the committee.

Daniel · 29 May 2004, 21:05

BTW PM me your 'fone number please phil!

Wayne Rogers · 29 May 2004, 21:25

If the resize has worked there should be a picture?

To small now

Phil Davies · 29 May 2004, 21:39

I might have a small RIB, Wayne, but there's no need to take the p**s

Daniel TD5 · 29 May 2004, 21:42
