Boat show

[danyeates]

I don't have any on the stand but got some at base. What are you interested in?

[Hard-Drive]

Noooooo onto the second page of the SIBS thread and all we have is mention of stinkboats and stereos!!!

[Fittster]

Any one look at the Elan 210? If I had a lot more money than I actually have I could be rather happy with one of those.

Yeah stereos....its the future! Fusion headunits as before Dan, Ipod dock.

Just thought it was worth checking!

iPod *marina* surely?

Radio 4 is all I need on HMS Simpo - especially the shipping forecast as I battle against the elements, spray pouring into the cabin...

It remains to be seen whether a 39hp 3-cyl Yanmar can make any headway against ripples that may tower up to 2" high... but those in the know say it will be fine. 'Ah but you don't have to use it' I sa. 'What size rubber bands does it take eh?' But it does have a bathing platform so I can kneel on that with a frying pan and help push it along into the teeth of the light breeze...

Does anyone have a discount code they would like to share to buy tickets off of the website?

[danyeates]

I Should have some tickets spare. When you going? How many do you need?

I'm coming down tomorrow, but only just noticed this post and sorted them now.

Thanks anyway, appreciated.
