Had a look at the Sealine this morning. She's on blocks in Penryn. What a mess, mashed under the waterline, a total loss. Cornish wreckers managed to have it off with the plotter before she was hauled out. Apparently, the delivery crew may have been asleep. They've both now disappeared.

So it "had " a plotter... Anyone seen that picture of the german cabin cruiser high and dry on the corner of a river bend? Went up the bank full tilt, seemingly there was some below decks distraction...

Maybe the delivery crew flogged it in the pub the night before they left. That might explain a few things

Not enough, if they'd swapped the boat for a serious p' up they'd not have smashed it up.

Zone Point takes some hitting if you aimed at it. It's between the lighthouse and where we dropped the pots the year before last, it's barely a point at all.

I was meaning to ask you where it was 'cos I'd never heard 'Zone Point' mentioned before. I expected it to be miles away from there.
Those guys were seriously inshore then
