Please don’t give the usual evasive reply, just a date would suffice. And perhaps even a reason for the delay.

We will see Brian. For someone who is so publicly vocal in his hatred for Phoney Tony, he appears to be up there with the new labour spin masters when asked about his boat.
Come on Codders -answer my question please.

It is sod all to do with me - out of my hands - I am sick to death of all the accusations from some of the miserable gits who should crawl back into whatever pond they crawled out of.
As to when it will be ready I was HOPING repeat HOPING for the middle of August - obviously it is not to be - I would rather my boat be built PROPERLY than have it rushed at the very end - I have waited this long - a little longer won't hurt - althought it is really frustrating!!!
Realistically speaking I am hoping for mid september at the latest - or else!!!

Dear Mr Codders Prawn, honourable regional assembly member for Swansea south and shadow spokesman for everything  I would be only too happy to oblige with a video, if you get a RIB  Streamed or zipped?  Des

I wonder what I can sell him  I know give me £250K and I will deliver a house in 20 years time Des

Chaps,
Lets be more gentlemanly here, despite the ribald comments Codders still hangs in here and you've got to admit its jolly good sport. Got some good pictures from South Sheilds this weekend will post them on tuesday when developed etc.

Codprawn,
Thank you for your reply. I am now even more intrigued than I was before.
Are you able to tell us what has caused all the delays? From what you have said, it seems to that you have been let down by one (or more) of the manufacturers or component suppliers. If this is the case should you not tell the full story on this forum, to prevent other potential customers being treated in the same way?
By the way in case you are wondering, I ask these questions with genuine interest.
Regards.
Ian.

If you were to read my posts in the past you would know what the problems were!!!
The main culprit has been circumstances!!!
Providing my boat is as I hope it will be then nobody will get any blame - in fact I will sing their praises from the rooftops - if not - look out........

Ahhhh, pecuniary strangulation perhaps?
I know the feeling well....

Well, I can’t remember seeing any detailed explanation for the delay in previous posts, but I have to confess that I probably haven’t read them all.
Like I said before, I asked the question with genuine interest and I am still none the wiser but good luck anyway.

Maybe you mean well but I have had more than enough of some of the comments on here - so much so I really don't think I can be arsed with all this crap anymore - I came here to LEARN about RIBs and when I finally take delivery I intend to try to enjoy my boat.
I was planning on posting pics etc but all I will get now is - "You waited so long for that" etc etc.
I have basically been called a liar and life is just too short for this kind of shit!!!!

Fair enough, but please don’t throw all of your toys out of the pram at me. All I have tried to do is give you the opportunity to set the record straight, yet you continue to talk in riddles.
If you really have had enough of the comments on here why don’t you just tell the whole story?
