Hello from Pembrokeshire

Hi all

New to the forum but not forums in general (mainly Land Rover ones!)

Name's Brian, a Scot living in Pembrokeshire for the last 20 plus years, long history with boats and boating including a spell with the RN.

Now working for the Milford Haven Port Authority and providing I pass my Advanced Powerboat Certificate of Competence i'll be the Water Ranger for the Haven starting this may.

TTFN

LOL, that's the one, I was expecting to tow that back to MH, but after checking engine and hull, there was no real damage found, very lucky indeed.
