Osprey pics
Thanks for all the coments, to quickly answer, Stedi, yes, would be good to see a few ribs on the Mersey, other than the river festival,Jyasaki, just the angle of the dangle of the photo, hull and prop effect on the water, if you want to see it first hand, get your rib flat out, then knock it into idle, look over your shoulder, and after you finish bailing the water out, I hope you see the funny side of this exersize!!

osprey pics
To continue, Ian, speed with two of us, with slight swell, 30knts on GPS,felt very stable and safe, much happier than the 4.8 Kestral, although that was an excellent little rib, think we might squeeze another few knots out off this rib if flat calm, will let you know, but very pleased with whole package.
Hugh,sounds great idea for a get together, what about organizing somthing with Jono, since he is now dealing with Ospreys, be a good photo shot, all the models,haed and soft nose etc?
