    so who went aground yesterday?

    MDL Shamrock Quay staff did take the trouble to call me to say that they'd moved my boat so that she didn't ground. I was very happy as I hadn't known about the very low water expected.

    PBO - split cover is a stupid idea

    Agree that the split cover is a mess. If international's marketing eople thought it was a good idea they are mistaken. Most of the ad will not be read on the fold outs & they've annoyed potential customers.

    New Look Yachting Monthly

    New look Mag Like the new look esp the clear type faces and layouts. I thought the cover was confused with the broad yellow band covering the picture. However the slogan 'For the cruising sailor' -great says it all. Please no more about towing/helecopters etc as we get all that from the RNLI's...

    I have owned a Parker 335 for the past 5 years she has great accomodation, sails well,takes the ground easily, and is seaworthy. Have a look at Parkers' web site.

    Trust a broker, a warning.

    I have had several dealing with SD Marine and I have always been treated by them in a professional manner. I agree with Galadriel's comment about phoning them.
