Thanks for the photo's Paul, I didn't realize I had so much fun! It was nice to meet up with Alan and Co. at Cowes for a drink, will have to get that low speed handling issue sorted. Maybe change the pilot !

Two weeks to recover before I'm back to the water, will try to shop for some bargains on my trip Paul. Anything you want me to bring back, just ask.

Thanks everyone for your support and can't wait to meet up with you for a cruise.

HIGHTOWER congratulation with your boat and nice pics you have taken Paul, I bet Missus must have been very unhappy being home cleaning.

Especially when we were boozing it up in Cowes, Bogib
