Picking 'er up REAL soon - hopefully on the day of the Paddy's Day muster to Cowes. Towing chariot obviously not shown, but is an Xtrail

(ps - the donkey is actually a 150 not a 200, long story involving catches damged on '150' cover, which has now been rectified)

(pps - yes, she was the one that was nicked late last year, but soon after recovered in perfect condition)

... this is "sweet orange" our 4.2mtr Wavebreak. Depending on where we're going, she sports either her skeg or an outboard jet unit. (She's wearing her jet unit in the photo....)

Took Evolution out of the water for the first time today. Here she is:
(I think a black Navara would look rather good )

Tim,

It looks nice in the water as well.

Personally I think thats the best combination for the white engines. A black hull/tube setup. Good contrast and looks smart.

Thanks Biggles.
I hope to change the engine to something bigger and blacker when funds allow

My Rib/Rig

10 months in the making - finally all finished (not going to stick anything else to it, if it gets any heavier, it may not float!)

My Rig

Hi All, Here is my Zodiac Pro550 with Yamaha 50hp 4 stroke plus my Dodge Ram ( 5.9L V8 Petrol )

Just fitted a tow bar to my Renault traffic too as the fuel bill for the 160 mile round trip is a bit steep......

I think you need a bigger boat or a smaller tow vehicle.....

Sissy? How closely did you look at what is wrapped around them?!

As a Land Rover owner of many years I got tired painting rusty steel rims all the time and alloys look much nicer anyway. The last Land Rover I had went to the top of the highest mountain in the Falklands where only a handful of vehicles have ever been and I daresay this one will do the same.
