  1. 2 years ago. I’m not after any compensation. The surveyor maybe could have picked it up but I doubt it. It’s just one of those things.
  2. The previous owner was French and I bought it from a dealer in Plymouth who imported it.
  3. Nothing wrong with them Jon. They are just a bit tough to embroider.
  4. I reckon Dave Grohl was probably more the driving force in Nirvana than Kurt. Kurt was a talented song writer but Dave does it all!
  5. Andy, has @JonC hacked your account again?
  6. What after your lockdown weight gain? I can ask them to stick in a flexi panel for the T’s if you like ?
  7. If you think it’s a dodgy boat, why put it up for Jon to look at?
  8. I’m pretty sure that we asked this last time round and the answer was no. Although the normal sizes especially in the hoodies are generous. I will ask.
  9. Ok, you wanted prices, here are your prices. Heavy weight T shirts £24 (white, orange, grey or red) Polo shirts £30 (grey, royal blue, vintage red ((sorry Geoff for that price no pocket, but i am working on it) Long sleeve T shirts with logo printed down the left arm £26 (grey, red, white or orange) Hoodies £40 (sport grey, carolina blue, sand or light blue) To get the long sleeve T shirts I need to order a minimum of 12, so get the orders in. Colours to keep things simple id recommend grey, but ive included a couple of other light colours for choice. On a lighter back ground the logo looks good and shows detail well.
  10. She deserves all she gets, fucking idiot.
  11. I have the 20-30 (and a bigger 40-50?that I bought from @Odyssey)of these rods. Great rods. My 20-30 needs a service or rebuild though as it’s looking it’s age now.
  12. As long as it’s not a sore ring.
  13. Seems the tunnel is factory fitted and the ends covered over. Then if a thruster is required later they core drill the hull. Looks like an incorrect core bit was used and the gap then poorly filled. Will atleast be properly strong now when done.
  14. So after a repair was started on what we thought was just a poor patch up, it’s seems that the thruster tunnel was a poor retro fit job. Here is an email from the repairer and a series of photos of what he’s done this afternoon...... Hello Neil As you know I got started today, will be back tomorrow to finish up. As requested I have been recording my progress with photos. First I sanded down the small thumb size wet patch to find two small cracks. I dug away at these cracks and the resin looked soft so I decided to sand all around the thruster to see what was going on. To my surprise there was a badly cut out hole, way to large and on the wonk too. The installers had tried to cover this up by filling voids of around a inch wide with all the fillers they had in the boot most likely . I spotted 3 different fillers and a epoxy resin filler it was the epoxy filler that hadn't cured. The epoxy resin filler is orange in colour, a clear indication of amine blush this is when epoxy gets wet or doesn't reach curing temperature. I removed this dead material, opened the cracks up with razors, sanded and keyed the area well then flushed with acetone and allowed to dry. I have now filled the area with a resin filler for shape and will fiberglass tomorrow! Here are the photos of the progress... j I think it's a retro fit now, the factory would have plenty of any one filler. Also they would have the correct size hole saw for the job! I've never seen anything like that around a thruster before. Poor workmanship. Looking good now tho. Take care I'll be in touch
  15. It should read..... somewhere out there, there’s a dogfish without my name on it....🐶🐟
  16. If it’s any consolation my boat will be back in the water a week this Friday. So I will get out there and report back on what your not missing!! 👍🏻
