Following careful negotiation of the strong tide and shoals in the entrance to Woodbridge Haven at the mouth of the Deben, lunch was held off Felixstowe Ferry sailing club just a little way up the estuary.

On full throttle for much of the day despite some extremely lumpy conditions in the North Sea, Wayne finally slowed down enough to have his picture taken

A shot of Peter's beautiful sounding and extremely potent Evinrude Ficht 90, spoilt only by some prat in a 4.0m Searider

Absolutely, and even if I can't make my mind up about what my next RIB's going to be, it's simply going to have to have an Evinrude Ficht on the tail for the wail alone

Daniel's put more hours on his new Valiant in 3 weeks than some people do in a year! And it took him nearly three hours to drive to Suffolk this morning!

Looks like you guys had a great time.

Of course you guys will have noticed me missing! Sorry, after all i kicked up such a fuss to let me come!

Promlems with water in the fuel - all related to recent shot fuel sender gasket i guess. Now corrected and hope to see anyone who is out and about tommorow for the air show.

I keep thinking I'd like a bigger RIB, but I'd still have to keep this little Searider - it's a real hoot and it loves the rough stuff.
