Credit where Credit is due.

I know PWCs get a lot of bad press, but when I was singlehandedly recovering a mate's RIB last night, (long story), two members of a family jetski-ing and messing with a ringo in Warrenpoint harbour reversed the van and trailer down the slip and and attached the winch strap to the RIB after I drove up to the trailer and then proceeded to winch me up onto the trailer, just so I did not have to tie the boat up, get the trailer reversed and generally run round like a demented chicken.

So well done those complete strangers, helping someone who was dreading his first single handed retrieval.

I've seen bad things from all sail, power and ski but also good

I guess it's like most things you always remember the ones that p15s you off and never the ones that lend a hand.

Must admit though that it's hard to remember the last good thing a ski rider did for me.

similar experience yesterday launching at Loe on my own . My 4wd is in the garage and its a slip where My transit isn't great for launching . The jetskiers stood by helped me push the boat off the bunks and then held onto it while i parked . Without them I would have had to wait at least another half hour for the tide .

Thanks Guys
