New Scorpion, collect this weekend!!
Well the new boat is ready! Getting out of work early today to head south and collect the new boat, perfect as the weather is now decidedly cold

However all being well I will get at least a few days before the snow starts falling in the frozen North..

Sold in July, this one is an 8.5 metre non stepped. A bit slower I expect but more relaxing over a distance and the engine torque should make things easier too.
