    Fowey first time tomorrow - assistance please

    Hi hlb Was thinking along the same lines, as the 'season' is over. Will try the Poluran one first. Treating a few family members to a breakfast for doing some work on the house and the weather is looking ideal for an excuse to get out. Been to Salcome a number of times and thought we head in...

    Fowey first time tomorrow - assistance please

    planning first trip into Fowey tomorrow morning - 27ft Aquador. Aiming to get in for around 11.00 am. Any suggestions as where to moor on visiting pontoons - what to look out for. Tried contacting harbour master, but no answer as yet. Many thanks.

    Boating around Plymouth

    Moved down here 10mths ago. Love it. Lots to see as previous poster has said. Fuelling is not too much a problem over at Mayflower. Had a Four Winns 20ft previous, if sea state a problem then there is the Tamar going up to Calstock - nice pleasant river trip - although tidal! Hardest part is...

    I've gone and done it!

    I\'ve gone and done it! Long time no post here. Hope you are all well! Am going to be a father for the first time (some time in August), plus my offer has been accepted on the next boat - Aquador 26 with KAD44. Apart from fatherhood advice, does any one know of a good surveyor / engine...

    Do you think the col reg

    After reading it - I find it barmy. If it goes on the water - like the highway code - you must abide by the rules of the water. Full stop. When are the judges going to use common sense here???

    I remember this coming up in a thread last year - unable to find it. I have a feeling it was around 2001/2002. Can anyone remember? Thanks.

    boat not used for 16mths - what concerns are there?

    For all the wise and knowledgeable ones - am thinking of seeing a boat over in Dublin - was last serviced Sept'04 - out of water and has not been used. Broker is saying boat had been looked after (but not seen it) - am concerned engine service is over due (diesel) and is likely to need some...

    Do you think people are selling their boats?

    I know the sales spiel when buying, but am looking at an Aquador 26HT and the broker that specialises in these has sold all his brokerage stock over the last couple of weeks. The only ones available are in Ireland - unless you know different.

    Do you think people are selling their boats?

    Having had a chat with my broker (am looking at buying), they are having a good time, although on new boats sales are down. Their reason is the boat show is round the corner. Boats on brokerage up to 3yrs old are selling well in 25ft-28ft range - but must be priced and well spec'd.
