Many thanks for the update Boatworld Dave... I hear the sound of Mrs F smashing the piggy bank right now having just seen the payment link you emailed to us moments ago.

It’s possible you’ll be out in it at the weekend. Weather permitting.

Ahh I think even if arrived that soon that'll be blowing it up in the garage, admiring the sleek lines, trying the outboard for size plus fitting the bow dodger and transom wheels.

Mind you if it did arrive and the jobs got done Sunday is due to be cloudy/some sun and 18deg which is good enough.

Just added several of the Borika mounts that might suit us to the order.

My wheels don’t arrive until next week. I’m not in any rush just yet as it’s still so cold. I will be setting up in the garden and trying a few things out.

It's a bit flat for me Fenlander, I'd miss the hills and mountains. Wouldn't mind it a bit warmer than here though.

So can we all expect full in depth reviews of your new SIBs by the end of June?

I'm pondering hard on buying their own bow dodger... high cost but in the scheme of our boating costs over the past decade it all averages out. Looks well made with a good tube support but I'd have preferred it a few inches lower.
Hi got voice mail to Day from Boatworld my have Boat By the week end
Hopefully 👍

It's all sounding good nacnud. So how many of us are getting a KB350 from this delivery... four or more? Must be a record for number of forum members buying the same boat the same day.

Well pallet arrives tomorrow. I see I started this thread almost 3mths ago... I usually only buy stock items as I hate the uncertainty of waiting so better rummage through and find the bunting for the arrival celebrations. However I may not be the first as I suspect there are those collecting today who may get their boxes open before me. Hope they haven't changed the colour scheme to lime green and purple without telling anyone.

Hope santa is good to all those waiting on presents!

I’ve been waiting since last October when I first started looking at buying a sib and narrowed my choice down to 3 sibs. The Elling won on many things. Now either today or tomorrow my dream will come true.
