I don't know, I was just wondering with it being the Cancer race it would have been better to have done it then, given the fact that it's for a Charity rather than just a launch, I appreciate that both are inportant, but to get the right amout of impact for both, surely it would have been better on 7th and 8th.

Only a thought from someone who does not have a clue as to how these launch's work.

The pictures were taken from the sports boat and rib show while the boat was on dry land. There is still much work to do before it's finished

I suspect the launch will now be private - due to the strange birds that pitched up to the Sports Boat and Rib Show on the Friday.

Really, any idea who they were? Did anyone know them? I had been led to believe there were quite a few strange birds there on the Friday, some were even chirruping about Ice Cream????

Surprising really, I didn't think James had that many fans, I thought it would have been Richard, he's the cute one. I would Imagine James is a blokes bloke, if you see what I mean?

Know what you mean...I had a picture of him in my mind gathered in a shed with the likes of JF and Jeff and a few other boatmaders with pipes hanging out their mouths discussing the merits of side valve engines and insect infestation in gel coats and how they should bring back coal as a power source for boats
