What is this .......?? 
A competition between you and @Geoff to see which one of you can be the cheekiest slow boat builder the world has ever seen or what?

Well played despite the outcome. Kudos for getting out there in shit weather 👍

arhhhhh, I see the "M" thief has struck again!!

I can see that Leo is not as daft as You look. Geoff. Glad the rain has stopped. G.

Floundeting eh? Guess you've been taking lessons from Pete too Geoff!
Love ya Pete 😉👍

Yep same here..... 
According to an old commercial boat St Govans tide race used to hold monster females. Only problem is castlemsrtin firing range sat on top of there! They don’t fire at weekends. So first calm weekend. Midweek will be Celtic deeps northern section 

good luck to you mate

No I am not Neil, but I probably will when I do get old!  Geoff.

Cos we ran out of anchovy, and you wouldn't have noticed had it not wriggled 🤭

Abidextrous, is that Norfolk speak, or have you been taking lessons from Pete? Sorry Pete,you know I mean well. Geoff.

Did Neil forget his rod then?

With high winds forecast way ahead I ventured out on the Tamar yesterday in search of cod. Some have been caught, and all the local shore hotspots are rammed. No crowds for me though as I tied 'Piranha' to a handy mooring buoy just off the main channel to fish the last of the ebb and most of the flood. Three rods went out: an uptider with a two-hook flapper for whiting, another uptider with a large calamari on a pulley pennell and a downtider with a whiting livebait. Later on I switched the heavy uptider to a livebait slider rig baited with a 10" whiting and put a dead pout on the downtider. 
I can't report anything dramatic: lots of whiting to a pound on squid/mackerel cocktails, some hefty pout and several conger to 7-8lb. Conger are a nuisance in the Tamar when using squid or fish bait; ideally I would use peeler for the cod but at 80p a crab (when you can get it) it's too expensive for me. I work on the theory that a hungry cod will take almost any bait, and I have had codling, bass and rays on squid, so I stick to that.
That looks like my last boat trip for a few days till the wind calms down. Anyone else on here fish the Tamar? PH

The c☺️ream will always rise to the top. Geoff.

Well done all of you for getting out and Andy for catching his favourites. Leo looks well excited for his first night on the beach. Geoff.

Your eyes are obviously not bigger than your belly Jon. Geoff.☺️

Lefty's rule ..... KO 🤣

You don't change the tyres very often on a trailer, they usually date expire first !
The tyres are moved and refitted by the powder coating guys who specialise in wheels and marine metalwork.
 
They did my last boat trailer, the ifor Williams GP trailer, and the Jeep wheels.  ....... all have been fine.
I will get the boat trailer wheels done in left handed blue to match the boat 😇

Yes it does, have used it on many a motorcycle wheel before now..... Can't see the chips at 150mph 70mph🤣

But for us left handed posers it does look very nice. Geoff.☺️
