Hi Steward
Welcome to RIBnet

This forum is definitely represented by members of all different ages, genders, backgrounds, boats etc so enjoy the diversity of topics and replies on offer.
In terms of age - "old " is only relative - I am "old" in numbers of years but young in terms of adventures
Merry Christmas to you and yours

No problem Stewart. I have an F-Rib 360 and a Smartwave 480 centre console. F-Rib is good for 2 fishing, the Smartwave is good for 3-4

that would be great mike especially as the cod and haddock are inshore for winter breeding, i was a part owner of a 30ft boat before it was stolen we had creals and did a little fishing plenty catching from scurdyness to the redhead.when my leg is a bit easier i will give you a shout
