"So now we are past the 'big day', what did everyone get ?"


The only boaty thing I got was a very nice waterproof notepad & pencil - very handy for noteing log details - may enen stop me writing on the console in chinagraph - although the Port & Starbord arrows may stay!

On my list for new year
mini-trilens radar reflector thingy - that one won't obsure the all-round white nav light.
Even bigger blue e-bay cover - the size I got just doesn't cover the length & width (no I'm not bragging!)

The mini trilens can be fitted below the nav light and run the lead up through the trilens to the nav light on top of the trilens. I have an image on one we fitted earlier and scroll down to second image and see how we do the fitting now, http://www.c2ribs.co.uk/boats.html
saves loosing all round white visibility

All Pumped Up....

A quicksilver pump (for me toobs y'know ), and HMRC bought me a HD Hero 2. Mrs M seems to want to slow the boat down with the amount of chocies supplied, wait a minute, she is probably expecting me to share them
