That all sounds remarkably familiar

wickedtopspeed · 27-09-2015, 08:11 PM

It is !!!!
I found a boat, was strung along for months then was told it was sold for less than I offered - all very strange !!!

Went away and spent the cash on a buy to let property, now back with some £, loved being on the water in my Scorpion to watch the start of the CTC, and would love to take part in the CPC first with a view to doing the CTC in the future.

Have to say it is all very hard work. Apparently the sport wants/needs new entrants, yet the lack of help in certain quarters is staggering. I sponsored one of the boats in RB08 with actual £ - not here to mess anyone around. Just want to be part of the fun !!!!

Thanks to all the offers so far - nothing has taken my fancy - yet !!! please keep them coming.

James, be more specific. What is it that you think you want?

phantom151 · 28-09-2015, 10:39 AM

Hi l have John cooks banana shark may be for sale pm me

wickedtopspeed · 28-09-2015, 03:19 PM

In all honesty I am not entirely sure !!!

Not canopied.

Think if it was trailer able by my Discovery would be better than having to get a tractor unit to tow it.

Probably twin outboards, probably not out and out race engines, so that they could be maintained by a large number of engineers, rather than a few.

Like RIBs, have 2, so either rib or hardboat.

Probably ideally I would buy a 10 metre twin engine Scorpion rib - but that is outside of my budget.

It is very interesting to see what is offered.

understandable, dunk tests etc to go racing is just needless hassle.

Something like a balsa cored, 25ft "Extreme 24" then.

So something like a pair of 225 efi promaxs from mercury racing, but which use a vast majority of standard motor parts?

You'd certainly have change out of your £60k budget!

wickedtopspeed · 28-09-2015, 04:07 PM

Why have you got one for sale !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Think the bigger the better hence the 28ft+/10 metre.

Very grateful for all the help and offerings so far though.

Arrow830 · 28-09-2015, 04:22 PM

....and we can cut the canopy and do a open 28

will rise the price a bit. (this sketch as inboard)

There are some desperate people trying to sell some desperate boats.

Take your time as most of us have done our doe on piles of crap.

Sorry sea dog but that bow looks good for the north sea oil fields.

For me I just want to see one of our boat's racing in GB-water - that's all. And if it meets somebodys needs its great. I do my Daily bread on other things
