Hi Wayne,

I've never been to Levington but Richard was there to have a sea trial of Blue Ice before we bought her.

We've still got a few tweaks to do to the website following feedback from people a few months ago. If you've got any ideas for improvements/additions to the site, please let us know.

Cheers!

Jon, have you or your friend done a search on Google - there are a few to choose from. Can't recommend any personally though.

Lou,
No, I was asked by Chris Murdock if I new any rib hire people, he's the Director of Nauticalia ltd, they sell a load of brassy, ropey, woody kinda stuff from various shops around the place.

I said I would ask on this worthy site.

Robin, cheers, I'll take a look, (and do a google search)

Ta, JF
