Hmm.... leave the oat anchored in the middle of the itchen, 22ft away from any obstacles while we're inside getting the briefing...and tea and cakes of course,
now there's an idea,

Was going to take my 6.5 RIB - but re-engined with a 150 E-Tec HO.
But just have not got time to rig it by next week and don't want to rush it. Work is really busy which is good - but doesn't help with my own boating!
Also just been away at Phwlleli races so lost another possible slot to work on the boat.
Anyway will look forward to getting on the water with the new combination - but its going to be a few weeks away at least!
Cheers
Adam

If we don't find a solution we'll just have to park next to a couple o' ribnobbas
