What colour are the tubes? Can't see if they're white or light grey from the pics.

Light grey with blue decals.
I was going to re-upholster it, but from the photo the blue decal looks a good match to the upholstery.
Are you coming or a nosie ???

pulled into Brighton for the night about 17.30.
The boat performed faultlessly. It's a very capable hull for sure.
The refurb continues when we get back to Ramsgate - hopefully Tommorow.

What else would you do? Apart from planning your next 'short' run.
Hope the seat bases hold up tomorrow.

Thats not too bad for rough seas.
Looking at the pics, a lot of the fixtures and fittings are the same as mine. Seat pods for one.

Good work re distances in this weather. A big lump on the back, nice.
Also, a member since 2002, you must be one of the original cast!! Must have been strange with just a few people posting.
Was the internet even working then? 
Certainly limited broadband!!
