Hello from London ..

Just thought I'd say hello again. I joined some time ago, but now have bought a bit bigger rib for us to use with the Mrs!

1400 mile round trip in two days is character building!

Welcome back to RIBnet, and welcome to Team Redbay. Cameo is a lovely boat, I remember her at the yard and at Easdale back in the day. You'll have to explain about yer 1400 mile trip now...

Ahhh thanks for the picture. thats really great!, the 1400 miles was from East London to just south of Fort William, and then towing back to Kent to the marina, and then back home in two days was a bit of a killer! She's a lovely boat, and we took her out on the Sunday just for a "poodle" around to the Marina. Very different to our little Ribcraft!

Cruising with a wrapped back console is a revelation. A lot of owners leave the ragtop on pretty much all the time. I don't - it's just legend bombing along with the wind riffling the top of yer bonce....

I'm looking forwards to enjoying being wrapped in the cold air (being doing navigation practice on a December evening!), but also like the fresh air!
