I'm up for it - but not going to keep putting details down - answered on the mdl forum

 

[DJE]

Anyone visiting Fairweather's wheelhouse please be careful of the new varnish! How many coats was it?

She looks almost finished; when are you launching? Sorry we can't make that weekend. Already booked for a club race.

 

[JonBrooks]

The Sportsboat and Rib show is on that weekend in Ocean Village Marina.

A group of us were going to go over to the Folly one evening after the show.
Looks like we should give it a miss then!! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I think it was 7 coats at the last count!... I'm all ready to go just awaiting the Twister in front to launch...Shame you can't make it Dave, but have a good race anyway!


All best Nick

I would have thought that a pillar of the boating community, such as yourself, complete with an Expense Account ready for the massaging, would be most welcome.

Mines a Firkin of Stella, just charge it to the Icom account.

Hey Martin

If you had not brought a Vertex the chances of you getting a beer from me would been a whole lot higher!!! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

And was that pillar or pillock? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Regards

 

[bigmart]

I would have bought yours if you had dropped the price to a reasonable level. The fact that yours came down in price, to almost exactly the amount that I told you you should be selling it for, after Vertex had accepted my cash, only goes to prove my point.

You should be buying me a beer, because of the free marketing advice, that I have endowed upon you.

As to pillar or pillock. Which do you find easier to spell after a few pints?

Fair point... I think!

After a few pints? I can't even spell when I am sober!!

Will I see you there?

You might be that unlucky. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

We normally try to get to the Folly over a weekend like this.

We have a couple of boats we can use so there is a good chance we will be there.

Regards

 

[bigmart]

What do you mean unlucky?

We are mooring onto the pontoons in Mid River so you can turn up in time to be the Water Taxi.

I knew you could be useful.

I just knew there would be a catch!!
I think my boats will be full!!

[bigmart]

You obviously need a lesson in lateral thinking.

You can always make more than one trip & with the list of boats that are going I would think you will need to.

Of course you may be in trouble for the trip back. Whats the penalty for Drunk in Charge of a Flubber these days.
