Hello from Pembrokeshire

[welshmac]

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

Hi and welcome to RIBnet Brian, where you on the range boat last year, if so I may have already met you, I'm boatless myself atm but looking out for something nice for the summer. All the best with getting your ticket, you'll find loads of helpfull advice on here.

Thanks guys, yes Dhf I was Johns assistant last year so was on the water, not the Range boat though, the Port Authority RiB, 7.5M humber, grey sponsons and a volvo penta inboard diesel.

Yep thats us coming over to say hello, that was the boat that broke its mooring and got washed over the channel wasn't it? Lucky owner

[Dhf]

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.
