V1 at the Brass Monkey was revving the nuts of the V24 and it sounded awesome!
Nice! One of your mate, V1, has my jumper cables!

Nice snowy scenes....and snowchains mandatory.

This depends if it is the REAL V1 or the fake V1. I can pass on the name of the owner of the real V1. (* If it was the fake silver V1, consider them stolen and gone for good ( probably labelled with a new name as well by now! ))

It was the black V1, I will more than likely see him at Allhallows though. You should come yourself mate.

I think you'll find that V1 has been sold to Andy Twemlow, so he may not have got the cable with the boat!

I did not think Allhallows had a V24 category?

At the moment my engine is rusted. I need to wirebrush it or something. I am looking at possibly buying a replacement engine

That is sad mate. Your bladerunner at Driver Wharf was looking pretty unloved also.
Whats the crack with your bladerunner these days???

not even close...look at the running lists... theres only two per side and the last ends in midsection.
argos have 4 per side.
Plus thisone looks slimmer than an Argo IMO, might say its a Tintorera/o (?) 21 or bigger.

both boats are boats called TARA 21. Very nice looking, have only seen the red one in real life. There are 2 offshore racing drivers that build them now., don`t thin they cost that much either.
Here is some contact info of the builders :
Anders wessel.pettersen@c2i.net eller + 47 91 38 37 67
Tobias tobmk@hotmail.com eller + 47 98 61 95 96 www.tmk-racing.com
