Brisk run out this afternoon

[Scarron]

The boat needed a proper run out to warm it through and recruiting willing crew proved difficult so I took a quick run out on my own this afternoon, it was a little bracing but nice none the less.

Hi Paul, great video and it showed both the brilliant sea conditions and the low sun angle. What speed was that running at 4000rpm? That engine growl sounds really good. About time I had a V8 fix in a local tunnel!
Cheers,

Hi Paul

Glad to hear you are back floating again.

She has a bit of a dirty bum having been in since August and hardly moved in the autumn so 4000rpm was giving about 33knots and wot gave a shade over 40knots at 5000.

So yup Ben I think those pumps are going to need a tweak..

A bit of Big Block Burble coming back into Hamble

Beautiful on all the senses...... Thank you.

That really doesn't do the glorious noise any justice.

Paul, you could have always asked Anthony for my number, most days available, pick up at Calshot jetty, love burning someone else's petrol

Hi Dave, sorry I'll give you a call next time - family seemed to consider a Christmas shopping trip to West Quay was preferable to a bit of salt laden petrol fumes.... No accounting for taste!
