You're like shit version of ChatGPT where you just ask more boilerplate questions and then go Google stuff. I wouldn't be surprised to find you're just a chatbot.
Uncalled for

Ordinarily, yes, but the little chatbot has thing for selectively contradicting me and being a bit of a passive aggressive so I don't feel bad.

Also, there's often far more direct insulting behaviour on here so your intervention is also a little ironic given the mild nature of of my comment, but I see where you're coming from.

I did not contradict you whatsoever. You suggested that the OP should consider a 4.5 mtr sib when he had already stated that he would also like to use it as a tender to his 25ft speedboat.

You didn't even provide any useful information for the OP other than that which had already been given.

You are obviously a complete arse who takes umbrage when things are pointed out that are incorrect and who isn't man enough to admit when he is wrong or hadn't read the thread correctly.

Hopefully I'll be over in Trearddur next month, might bump (metaphorical) into you.
Yeah hopefully I will be floating around somewhere, weather and sea state permitting.

I go in my 3.2m air deck with a 9.9hp with my 12 year old and feel we could accommodate one of his mates as well, though I've never done it, and even that would be a bit of a squeeze.

I'm not highly experienced on the sea at all, but I feel planing there requires hanging on tight, bouncy bouncy, and I would not have them sat on the tubes or higher up, I'd have them sat on the floor for fear of them being bounced out. TBH I personally wouldn't take a 5 year old on the sea in my sized boat. As said, I'd stick to the river. But that's just me.
