Hi Shane

Any chance of an invite. It seems a real shame that all of the old posts from the old SIB'bers club were deleted. Can't the guys at WSF get them back?

"IF A YAKKER CAN DO IT A SIBBER CAN ,LOL"

What you meant to say was, "IF A YAKKER CAN DO IT, A SIBBER CAN DO IT BETTER!" ;-)

Cheers Shane. All sorted.

I'll have a sift through my photos and put a few more videos together.

Got some ideas for a few videos exploring the seakeeping of SIB's in some pretty trying conditions. With the weather we have had for the past few summers, sadly, I have no shortage of footage.

Should be of interest to those looking to get into the scene, and may help dispel a few myths concerning the suitability / capability of inflatable boats at sea.

I didn't see any new video's as mentioned...

Is this a club for SIB's ?, if so, please add me, i've got an avon rover 3.1 airdeck and a yamaha 8hp engine, looking to go out to sea on it and would be good if there were some other likeminded boaters to go with

Cheers

What SIB's are you using for you sea fishing,?
I'm down south west Wales and will soon be making the transition from a rigid hull to a car transportable SIB.

Sorry, Edmund. I have about 500 Gb of underwater/ fishing / boat footage on my computer, naff all of it on the web though. I'll have to get editing! ;-)

PS. What's the popular opinion on using some tunes to accompany boat footage. Yeah or nay? The continuous drone of an outboard does get a little boring IMO.

thornbackflound · 22 July 2009, 16:13

I liked the music on the cod vid,goes well with it,be good if you could put that one on in our club so members can have a look
