WaveHumper gave us a lift out to the Island and then we escorted him back to his Marina in Southampton

jools · 08 July 2002, 20:40

Anybody spot the location??

How about the Folly at Cowes.(although I thought that particular berth was for the Harbour Master

The engine must be well run-in after that long trip.

The new toy looks very nice indeed - I am quite jealous

but I see you didn't go with the windscreen wiper option

.

Are the two VHF aerials what is required for DCS sets?

Hope you have lots of fun with the new cat.

and Cath looking pleased with herself!

(and a closer look at the console

)

Jools, looks good, you must be very happy! I am sure you can rig up some device to scoop up water and spray it in your face as you go along should you need to relive the tomkat experience

!

See you Saturday,

Alan

Looks great Jools, congratulations. I'll bet it drier than Tomkat!
