Newbie in ayrshire

[NeilC]

Hi everyone

I've just purchased my first RIB - first boat actually. Osprey Sparrowhawk. I'll call it pre loved and it's seen some action but seems to be a pretty solid boat. Did my PB2 last year and looking forward to getting out once I've got my act together.

Cheers
Neil

We're in Ayrshire too mostly out of largs where are you planning to launch? Might bump into you

Hi Neil and welcome.

Hi

Also planning on using Largs. That's where I did the PB2 so familiar with the layout. Long term plan is a summer dry berth and get someone else to do the launch/recover until i get the hang of the boating thing.

The dry berth makes good sense you just turn up & go makes life very easy. We launch & recover as we keep the boat inside at home. Post some pics of the boat & I'll say hello I'm sure theres another sparrow hawk uses the marina too so your not alone. Plenty to do & see around the area to keep you busy for a good while

I'll need to give it a wash first! I'm really looking forward to getting out. There's some stuff to sort out boat and equipment wise but should be good soon.
