Odyssey

It’ll be her van, I’m allowed to drive abs help convert it but boat is my area.....

New door matt and decals. No cushions I’m afraid! I’m sure campervan will end up with some 🤣

Cool I’ll have a look. I need to get my mistress some presents so she doesn’t get upset with me not seeing her for so long 🤣

@Saintly Fish where did you get your door mat? 🤔

Stan will suggest what guides 🙂 Fuji is usually a good choice 🙂

Looks great 🙂 If you sell your boat can take it all with you 🙂

Raider 18 different boat go the 16. Stick to the 18. Id keep your eyes open for a Day Angler 19. Loads of room and lockable cabin as well

Outdrives are long gone. They were Yamaha outdrives. Known to be an issue. Mercruiser or Volvo and you’re onto a winner. Im currently running twin Yamaha 300hp outboards on the back. Legs have a bad reputation but I would be happy to have one (or two) as long as I knew they are serviced. If you leave an outboard gear box too long you’ll soon get issues. Same with a leg

Complete wreck. Conger can make themselves at home. However conger are the devils own fish. Need to be 40lb+ small ones are a nightmare

Can you update it with a nicer picture 😉

I read the initial report from the MAIB. When you see the pictures of the bulge in the hull it’s a little sobering

You’ll have to invite her on here Jon 🙂

I’m running an Evolution 30. https://www.breakseaboats.com/gallery/nggallery/breaksea-boats/lady-jue-evolution-30-swansea When she was first commissioned by previous owner. As she is now... You can’t really see the fridge and TV which are currently opposite the table. TV will move into the V berth at some point, when I’m allowed back down there. ECU on an engine is better as you can plug in your laptop and get a readout of trouble code etc. It’s rare for an ECU to go.... injectors and turbos more likely due to diesel bug/incorrect servicing etc.

At least you ate that one.... One less to pinch my bait now 😆

I’ll get started then.... before @Andy135 floods it with his new boat and dogfish 🤣

Ok guys it’s too bloody quiet in here. I’m bored in work and need some stuff to read/pass the time away. What’s your best catches/boat/shore times of 2020? Get posting 🙂

I don’t know... it’ll cost me £15 to get it sorted. I’ve got it got £80 each so cheaper than a Saltist so happy days 🙂

Yep, there’s a CD. Gone off for a service now. Nice reels but I wouldn’t pay £220 for one.... £65 each is more my thing 🙂

D4 good engines. Standard fitment on offshore 25s by breaksea boats. Given that Pete is building most of these for commercial guys I’d say pretty good. Obviously, only if maintained. Not a huge amount of cabin space, but I think you got more berths and an inside heads. I know that many call my boat a ferry but the internal layout is great. Ive seen a 940 take some heavy seas. I followed one coming back from sharking with a nice bit of swell running and it took it quite well.

£70k.... seems quite a bit for a boat of that age but hey that’s just me

Got any details of a particular boat? Or are you buying new?

Nice boats. Good compromise of fishing and cruiser. Won’t fish many but you’ll do it in comfort!

I’m not sure I agree on a strut looking good... give me a good arch any day. Got to love a nice bit of shiny stainless 😁😁😁😁😁😁 @Saintly Fish if you’re forking out for Radar, spend a few more ££, get an arch and get your refector integrated into it as well 🙂 Maybe add a flagpole and get done flags up there too 😉

How high is your anchor light? You ideally want a clear field of view. Go for an arch, get some rod holders in there too 🙂 great for travelling as keeps rods out the way. However, if you’re on the shorter side you need to ask the skipper to get your rods down ( @headlight 😉 )
