Cookie Seeks Denplan Sponsor

Cookie joined forces with Paul Lemmer to test a RIB off Salcombe but when Lemmer took the wheel....and throttle he omitted to tell Cookie he was going to wellie it. The boat hit a large wave but Cookie's teeth came down faster than the boat and made contact with something hard. Result, a bloodied mouth and cracked teeth.

Certainly not - I was doing a friend a favour by driving one of his RIBs for a photo shoot when the above mentioned "gentleman" stepped in to give the boat a test - I should have stepped out at that stage.
