Hello from SOuth East :)

[Timan]

Hello,

Just joined and just got my first rib

Well, actually brought it last year but only just getting round to getting it in the water

Its a pacific 22, and it seems I've gone through the standard process of buying it and then selling various organs to fund replacement of most of it!! Live and learn

Anyway, nearly there so hope to see you out on the water soon

Thanks for the ad

thanks Daz
things have moved on.
police recovered most of my gear including engine.
the toe rag is inside now
he had a two 40 ft containers...full including a fully equiped rib.
so although i have gear back the damage he did to my rib including slashing all the air tanks, cut right through all cables. even cut the radio mic cable.
so boat is probably a write off.
with engineers now so they can give insurers a quote.
but it hurts as your boat becomes quite personnel i feel. unlke a car theft.
another post script i heard was somewas recently stole the rescue boat from brightlingsea.
enjoy this great sailing weather mate.
