'Nosealegsyet' I like that:)
'Some' on here have non either but THAT would be telling!
Hey, I looked at the picture and right away thought 'Thats Gallows Point wtf is a bod from West Sussex doing up here!
Reading on I realised
We are on kinda different lockdown 'guidlines' hereabouts
The same 'social distancing' though.
How are you going to manage that snag on the sea trial?
Hey, I,m not trying to burst a bubble or cause a downer or owt
Just that Today I could have taken a local bloke and his new to Him boat (similar to yours) out for a sea trial and some training stuff.
6.5 I think it is but anyway We decided it was not the thing to do, for now
Sorry not trying to nick your thread or excitement
I suppose it will be a while until She is rigged and ready
Anyway, She is 4.9 miles from My place
If you want a hand on the day I could sit in the outboard well!!!?
I suppose you will have to just dash up here do the Trial and get back 'Darn Sarf' what a shame not to able to see the Area properly
Or have I missed summatt?

No that's dead right!...The deal he gave me was thousands cheaper than anyone down here, hence the journey.....

Outside on a boat poses no heightened risk as long as you don’t lick the steering wheel or each other so use common sense and do the trial.
Of course you can’t keep 2m. Still safe enough.
Whether the additional rules imposed by the jumped up community council in Cardiff scuppers it is another thing.
 
Don't forget to start with do everything - throttle openings mostly - very slowly! Stay calm and collected when leaving and coming back to your berth and, did I mention it, do everything slowly … oh and buy some big fenders! Have fun. … :cool:

Cheers M8, just been discussing the 'social distance' bit with 'others' some also suggested that testing the steering wheel for taste was not a reccomendation. Plus a re read of Cardiff's rules about workers in the workplace etc . The phrase/term 'where possible' is mentioned often. So yeh, its just a matter of using common sense it appears.
'Common Sense' now there is a rare commodity these days!
Nosealegsyet, enjoy the Test and the boat in the future
Hey, 'Sods' innit.The flippen weather forecast, crap (compared) here for the next week!
 
she's on my brand new trailer, and in the workshop having the engine fitted!...Its all happening lol

brilliant! lol!
We were meant to come on Sunday to pick the boat up, but as you can see she isn't ready, I was just impatient, jumping the gun all the time !....hopefully Friday now
 
Use the two 'eyes' on the transom to secure the blunt end. Use the 'D' ring at the pointy end to secure to the trailer
I never use straps always ropes (hate straps) and never have a strap/rope or whatever 'pulling' or rubbing on the hull
You don't need a 'sway bar' or any exra gadgetts to stop the plot swinging about
The paltry safety wire that sometimes come with these rigs are a bit scimpy
Again, if I am towing a long way I rig up a seperate, extra security line
Again normally with rope
If you give Me a nod when you are leaving or when you are readying to leave
Just a call, I am 20 mins away from your boat
Don't mind casting an eye over the set up before you leave
The Fee would be 20 'kingsize' and a pork pie from the local butcher, by the way!
