As b...gg...r all posts to do with boats seem to be appearing.
It is time to disinterr that old favorite, How many hours boating we all actually managed to do during the "summer',and did you axshually set out to to go somewhere new and then actually go and do it.
Ferinstance,Sarah T. and me went into the uncharted and dangerously Pedro infested headwaters of the Thames and whats more the insurance company will prob pay out quite soon as well.

220 and counting - didn't get out of our usual Christchurch to Weymouth range despite nearly going to both Alderney and Cherbourg on seperate occasions but not finding the weather conducive to the decision each time.....

Somewhat disastrous 80 hours, no new destinations, mainly due to the arrival of one of THESE...

Not enough! Don't usually keep a tally of hours per se. I know I've only spent 1200 quid on ,that oh so dangerous, petrol and 2 oil changes. Normally by this time of year its double that.
Had to work a lot of weekends this year, hardly seen anyone and not a prospect of fishing this winter either. I've had to take the engine out after the almost sinking.
All good fun this boating lark, innit.

No idea, but quite a few, 5 trips out to the Med and two back plus quite a few other deliveries more local.

Yup - but I can't claim to have to have done all that on my own boat - to busy driving/working on other peoples!

You must be well over the 1000 mark I should think! Maybe almost as many as your posts here/forums/images/icons/wink.gif

looks just like this dodgy old Dell, the lid hinge of which has just given up the ghost.

As for the little furry mouse button one has to swivel with ones didget, I find that rather familiar and comforting to use actually....... .......cant put my finger on why/forums/images/icons/smile.gif

600 mostly in the Med. Off early in morning for another 10 days of it. Had a good tip for a hot wreck site off Cabo de Palos. Im bursting my nuts to fish it.
