Scotty: I'll make my final decission in the morning. But I gotta be honest; I coming with Ms Chaos and she's not been in a fastish boat before.............never been in my phantom; so i dont fancy her 1st time being tomorrow if she's gonna get soaked, freezing & bounced about all over the place!
+ its in the region of 2hrs quicker for me to come without boat and God knows how much cheaper.
As I said, I'll weigh it all up come the morning

Na, my boat is carpeted etc, and getting it soaking wet just at the start of the winter aint clever!
It's also a lot of aggro craning in/out, and all the cleaning up and general pissing about, for one day out boating (gotta be back for 4.30 to catch the crane also) so if the forecast for Sunday is still shite in the morning, I'll bail.
:(
I'll watch me video again instead :D
