And I thought it was a long delivery when ours was sent from London to the Scottish west coast last year... be great to see some pics of yours on the water out there.

Had all jokes take me to England
Then police said tow it behind
Car so attached it to the boot lid drove down road at 15 mph
Wheels hard drag in sand
Took one my local boys out in it and flipped it
He never go on boat again !
Cost me £1 to get guy to come out and drain the carb
Rip off !

I'm curious about what you're up to! But I probably have too many questions.

Have a good trip!

Whereabouts in West Africa are you visiting?
And why there?
What are you planning on doing/seeing with the boat when you're there?
How much did it cost to ship it out there?
Would it not have been easier to hire one?

Thanks !

be careful on your travels, I was brought up in West Africa and have a healthy respect for the diseases you can catch and the less friendly wildlife out there!
