Is this the beginning of the end

Just clicked on the timeline, I've notice a marked increase in threads that are not related to ribs, surely there's more happening out there than what's being posted

Hi

Funny you should say that I've noticed that to.I think it's a bit of SAD syndrome with a bit of lack of boating activity.

Yup, silly season's here, it happens every year. Give it a couple of months & we'll be planning jaunts & japes, asking about insurance, best VHF to buy, handheld or fixed. Why have I just spent £ks on a second hand RIB & the transom's fallen off, are Br1gs any good, PVC or Hypalon, 2s or 4s, twins or singles, best way to drill a hole in GRP, how do I clean my tubes.....I'm missing it already

I'm trying to decide if the weather is going to be kind to me while I pull the revenger off the trailer so I can give the trailer a big hug, it's looking a touch tired, but there again so am I
