Hi Paul, as I think I had already explained in personal messages to you the really is nothing personal here so please don't take offence. It's just that cash and collection really work best for me and my logistics at the moment. Thanks and good look in finding the dinghy you are after I am sure...

I really need to get this collected this week or next week at the latest I am afraid.

I hadn't planned on postage as it so expensive but if I got a realistic bid it would be possible but it's expensive. I have done a back of the fag packet guesstimate on the costs using parcel force estimate. The package would be at least 75*60*10 and weigh nearly 9kg and have to be packed up...

Stupid, annoying Ebay have made me re-list as the apparently the original entry is on the wrong category despite being autocompleted by their bots. So the new correct entry for any interest is http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/232534086614?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649 Thanks, Mark

Photos from my old (2008) cruise there in this link Have a look at some photos from a cruise I did back in 2008. http://sailtoanywhere.blogspot.co.uk/2008_09_01_archive.html I seem to remember anchoring just upriver from the moored boats of Reen pier. We had no problems with holding but only...

Thanks for your replies guys but Thanks for your responses guys - I will be single handed on the way there - and although possible I will probably avoid going through the lock and the fun it entails. I am surprised about the comment about the airport being miles away - The Ryanair website...

Anyone ever visited Dinard ? Any advice ? Tom's shell channel pilot doesn't really cover it much. - the charts show an anchorage - it's dries but that's fine by me - is there actually room to anchor and is the bottom nice sand ? The shelter looks "OK" but any real world views appreciated...

"my friend" has twice for different boats bought a Spade Anchor for Bluewater supplies in St Helier, Jersey for this very reason. It was cheaper than any price he could get in the UK at the time. And he happened to be going on a cruise there ay I think a complete fitting out the marina costs...

My elderly Prout 33 used to have LPG power hot water heater in the heads - it was ideal. No electrical draw, located right where I needed the Hotwater - the shower in the heads and I could have a showere dried out without running the engines. My home berth drys... But I needed some work on the...

It's quite easy to get a king size bed on a prout 33... I brought a Prout 33 - It's wasn't an owners verison but I just removed the seat back from the forwards part of the saloon. And now have a kings size bed there (all be it Open Plan) This took all of one hour to do. I can now now sleep 7...
