Thank you, John

I would just like to take this opportunity of thanking John Kennett, most sincerely, for running this very excellent website, for another year.
It has certainly given me hours of fun, information, new friends, enjoyment and goodness knows what else.
Well done, John and thanks once again for a top-quality site.

More echoes of above..... Very good site, John. I've been a reader for a long time, even though I only started contributing recently. Do please keep it up!

The last time we met was at the solar eclipse...... I think you bought the beers after.... I will return the favour, hopefully before the next eclipse!


A very happy Christmas to you and all other RIBNET readers...

Mike C.

John has done such a good job of setting up and running this site that it has rapidly taken over from all other forms of information for RIB users world wide.

Best of wishes to you all.

Wow. I go away for a couple of days, and look what I come back to! Thanks!

Hope everyone had a good Christmas -- I'm away again for the next few days, but hope to meet up with some of you at the London Boat Show for a quiet Guinness or two

Cheers!
John

John Kennett, what a guy!

Just think how much more productive I would be at work if I didn't have this website and message board to post to!

Seriously though. Great site. Keep up the good work.

Cheers, Alan
