Pot plant, table, carpet, cd's in the corner,the lot. But 17 people are watching it now. Cant beleive it! and the other set of flashing lights are up to £97 quid!!!. I'm watching all the others on Ebay and its not happening for them.

Jon, I have never seen these 31 in Mirage props and I asked around too.

On average days the mirage it suits my boat the ride is better, softer. The bravo's ride is crap on my boat, seems like its scrubbing along on its belly with all that stern lift. But as the Cowes week proved, the low speed grip and stern lift makes them a better choice if the weather may break whilst away.

Overkill

Ditto plus the 12 volt cooler box is lighter and transportable.

I have been absolutley gob smacked at the final price for things. if you get the search description right and the detail in the add.

I dont pay for any of the photo's in the ebay adds though.

They give you one free and the rest get called into the add using HTML.

domestic money laundering.

The funds from the last Ebay bash I turned into props.

I've now got more props, than that bird from the Phillipinnes has got shoes....

2 * 26 bravo 1's
2 * 28 bravo 1's
2 * 27 Mirage plus
3 * 29 Mirages plus

The profits from Ebay do not 'register' on the household acounts, providing, the money goes into paypal and then out.

I just look upon it as "swapping things" with me ebay mates.

I cant keep buyin /swapping things for props for evermore though!

repitching

Another dream smashed then!

Perhaps when the other one turns up from the states you should try these 29's and if you like the changes to your boats behaviour. Perhaps then look at getting a set and winding on 5 or 6% more pitch and the loading the rest through dia. & cupping?

One of mine from ebay cost about 75 quid to the door from the states and that included buying it.

Cant remember exactly how much but it was under a ton anyway.
