OK the boats not brand new, just new to me but she has just got her new name and we are taking her home to Premier Gosport this Saturday.
We will be leaving Swanwick (up river of bridge) at round 11am (approaching low water for clearance). So if you see us on route don't forget to wave (or sound horn) and you will sure to get a wave back behind a broad grin. We are also doing the official handover combined into the trip with the help of Alan from Mendez Marine.

You know when you want a romantic photo you go for soft focus with a bit a Vaseline on the lens or in my case a bit of engine grease on your blackberry (apologies for the fuzzy pics)

All Ready for the off on Saturday

will try and get out to see you safely into the Solent.

We have to hand over our old boat on the weekend so the last blast for us.

Keep an eye out for evenstar3 around Mercury.

Enjoy :)
 
Plan to be in the marina on Saturday myself getting used to my new boat not as grand as yours but just as loved. Will love to give you a wave. What time you planning on getting there

Another personal visit for you too :) I used to have a 2002 F43 with crane, so looking forward to having a nose around yours.

Hi Roy, haven't had the crane fitted yet, take delivery of the boat on the 27th March so hope to have it fitted the following week.

Would be interested in you're thoughts re rigging the tender etc

Tender looks like great fun, love the decals, where did you have them done? I fancy tarting up ours with some custom bits and bobs?

Loving all the new boat threads, it really feels like the season is almost upon us :) Congrats to OP on what looks like an awesome boat.

Just stick on vinyl letters front the local sign shop and yes, with that 25hp 2 stroke she was a lot of fun.
Sorry Chris for hijacking you thread.
 
All: Thank you for you kind comments - looks like we will be waving a lot :)

Hi Merlyn, - thank you we were but PS did have any 14m berths we liked so trying Gosport got a nice big berth there, but might move to Haslar when the contract runs out in June so that also gives us free mooring at E.Cowes
