helped a friend take his legend up to the boat lift by the victoria yard west cowes saturday and was really impressed with the machine and its operator what a great piece of kit ! helpful guy works there , blasted off the barneys no problem , we stayed on the ramp overnight in a building force 8 , odd feeling waking up in a rising gale on board but boat was absolutely static ! would highly recommend the sevice /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 
we had ours done in september paid £80 +vat for about an hour. If you have the last slot of the day you can pay more to stay overnight and cast away first thing in the morning. great service will do it again this year
 
Really excellent piece of kit and i can appreciate their claims of 'fast', 'easy', etc... but 'eco-friendly'? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif Where does that come into it? Or is it that everything has to be claimed to be 'eco-friendly' these days to sell?

Well it is is actually, because they catch all the antifoul washings in a trough which is then pumped out and filtered before discharge into the Medina.
 
I think it's got some drainage tray that collects the crud from the hull, It's not deposited in the water but pumped away seperate. so what they call eco freindly
