'Owzabout tricounis and clinkers....?

I'm fairly certain that Jimi of this Parish still uses 'em.

i hope this isn't the training video you're using. my dinghy is not to be used. crampons may not be worn on my boat.

Sounds like you're off to a "rocky" start.

Presumably Mr Hancock will be taking something like a steel cubicle that he can bolt down to the rock and live inside. Hope you have plenty of deck space!

He has drawings on his site of a "pod", looking something like a static LPG tank, but made of fibreglass. I'd be surprised if anyone on this forum (except maybe Magnum ) has the space on board. A mobo with a big aft patio might manage.

Wonder how he's planning to get it onto the rock? The last guy hauled his wooden shed up in panels, but I don't think this one's designed to be collapsible.

Also a bit rude that he hasn't stuck around to reply to the threads he started.

Has also triple posted the same message in Motor Boat Forum and Wanted, as well as this one. However, no need for etiquette when you are alone on a rock for two or three months.
