Must be easy to identify. Not even Monaco's over-run with 25-cabin boats, is it? They should think more ambitiously: perhaps put in an offer for that monstrosity EasyCruise run. No windows, no privacy issues, everything plastic and wipe clean...

Mmm...enterprising idea. Silly buggers should have thought of moving out of the marina for sessions, and then coming back to disembark / embark after, say, a half hour turnaround. I mean- who's gonna be watching the cars whilst otherwise engaged??

And lets face it, F1's a pile of pants anyway /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I think he was going for quantity rather than quality Pauline /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

You know, Stack them high and sell them cheap.....

hang on, cheap, lots of cabins......perhaps I'm doing JFM an injustice, while watching the race didn't I see the orange "Easy Cruise" monster in the harbour?........no on second thoughts you wouldn't have to pay £300 for it on there.

Report from the coal face

Was in Monaco but sorry not sure which boat was the knocking shop. None of them was especially rocking, though at-anchor stabilisation is becoming more common. 500 euros would be suspiciously cheap though, like being offerd a £2.50 bottle of wine at restaurant, you'd ask for a slightly more expensive one please. In fact everything had been tripled in price for GP. Helicopter is normly euros 75 but it was 220. So on that basis the Euro500 tricks must have been ones that normly cost 170, and that doesn't get you much trickery in Monaco. Allegedly. Anyway, here's a pic of the harbour taken last weekend, anyone know/guess which boat it was?

EasycruiseOne was indeed moored just outside the harbour, knocking away

Re: Report from the coal face

fairly obvious that they are ALL knocking shops but the cheapo one was the only one that the flics cd afford to infiltrate, hence got nicked. The newsworthiness of the story is that they found one that was ONLY £300.
