great to know someone managed to get out, we had plans for a new years day cruise but unfortunately my launch vehicle decided to pack up that morning so we ended up mountain walking,
nitrox is looking good liking the cargo nets and 19"prop.. hope your around for the april meni cruise be good to take a look at her... like to see humber pauls face when 2 ribquests burn him off ...!
we are out again in 2weeks time so fingers crossed no more probs keep the pictures coming
