Hi All

Been browsing as an outsider for a while and decided to come aboard.

Just got myself a 4m Searider with a 60 Mariner.

Not had it on the water yet but looking forward to doing so.
Also have a 16 foot Reiver speed boatup in Scotland, real flying machine with 75 Mercury but sadly now for sale
Looking forward to the banter !

Hi Natalie,
Thanks, I'll bear that in mind. Where do you normally launch on the Mersey?

Sorry to hear that Steve, hope things buck up for you. As an ex cuncil waller I know the inner workings and some of the hellish decisions that come out of the 'power' house

oh that's no good, why do these boss's always think the answer to the problem is redundancy, they all seem to lack the skill to manage the problem

When I did my Powerboat 2 I was told that I could only launch from New Brighton and that I would need a permit (which I purchased). Subsequently Someone from this forum (Scotland) kindly informed me of a sailing club in Liverpool near to the airport (John Lennon) that I could launch from. I went to see the club and joined - it is a fantastic facility!! Check it out. Next Saturday (30 June) is a cruise up river!! I am sure they would be happy for you to come along as a guest - get in touch with them
