The official "Show us your boat" thread 2!
Discussion
Shown on the last thread and even has its own thread (Cornish Puffin) that I haven't updated for ages. Fair to say we are continuing to have tons of use out of her. I keep looking at larger boats and even have upgraded the mooring to take something around 8m .....but when push comes to shove, the pure simplicity, ease of use and cost of operating it and how much the kids are attached, probably means that we will have her for a few more years.
The dinghy is on an out haul 5 minutes walk from our house, a short row out to the mooring and 30 min later we are on this beach. I have about half the material possessions (apparent wealth I suppose) of my school friends that left Cornwall for work and careers, but this is the trade off i prefer

It's not my boat, but we are out today for a 2 hour "champagne cruise" around the cruise liners in Southampton water on a Phantom 48. I have only crewed rag and stick and owned sportscruisers previously (expensive enough for me thank you), so a flybridge will be a new experience.
Thanks Groupon and Seadogz, £49 including a couple of glasses of champers per person, it's rude not to and it will make SWMBO feel a bit special
A group of us did the rib experience trip with them a couple of years ago, again stupidly cheap via Groupon and if this is as good it should be excellent value.
