I agree with Pinnacle - we demand pics! (only because it's miserable here today and I could do with my fix of boat pron)

Well...............where are they? You had her for several weeks now and still no pics!

Wow, you guys are impatient!:disgust:

There's lot's to do, you know. Look what we've been up to this weekend! Three people, flat out. But, we did get time for a rapid trip down to Port Hamble for lunch today on Dave's V42. Would have been rude not too as the weather was just perfect!

Still, new AC sockets, with correct polarity now, retrims, where some had come loose and about 50m metres of flex to wire these little guys up.


Photos' are a bit naff but they are hard to get at twilight with a flat battery on a phone....

But she's coming together now. :cool:

More to follow but you'll have to be patient for just a few weeks. :encouragement:

Its good to see him back in charge of a Flybridge
This could have been the last time that he was at the helm of one

Yep, I guess it was. But hardly in charge...:eek:

Bloody 'Doris' chirping up every 20 mins, "270 Dee-greees @ 24 Nartts!":p

Still it was nice to be up top again and you would love the way this one handles Mike, beautiful little 'Micro-Commanders' and very silky smooth selection.:cool:

We're nearly there now, a few cosmetics and the dinghy mounting chocks are under plan now. I'm quite looking forward to giving the new dinghy a spin too. Cabrio 270 with folding transom and a Mariner 10Hp with a 'morse' type tiller grip. Should make 23 knots with one on board. I will check it with the RC400 for SOG.

Yea, I know, nothing like a Jetski...:ambivalence:

I also wanted to get the boat finished and latest pics taken, I might show a few before and afters too. The whole story might be a bit too much for here too but some of it would make a reasonable thread. The goods news it does show how a decent broker will work with you to get the boat as expected. :encouragement:

Roger.
