Thanks Col

Wouldn't it be good if everytime someone noticed a boaty program that was going to be on TV left a message on the forum. I missed the one about the Boat Show and usually only end up catching the raggie rubbish, oh yawn.

Is there many boaty programs on TV these days.

PS This does not give anyone the right to mention the re-uns of Howards Way OK!

Did anyone watch ? Recognise anyone ?
I was just commenting to the wife, on how it seemed to be mainly featuring yotties, who I thought never got anything wrong- when this absolute plank with a speed boat completely + utterly lets the side down. How, as a motorboater can you defend actions like that ? The yotties were unfortunate, the speedboat, downright irresposible.
Hope it was no-one here.

Totally agree with you, the speedboat guy has really given us a bad name. Doing 30knots in a 4knot limit, drinking alcohol at around 01:00am and not one was wearing a lifejacket, this is exactly how yotties view us and it just been confirmed.

I hope he gets a large fine for putting people in danger, and I really hope he is not on this forum.

Good program, next week's deals with 40ftish Motor Cruiser beached.
