It's a war Codders so, as unpalatable as it is, you have to accept that there will be casualties. That said, the levels of casualties we are seeing are still much lower than in previous conflicts.

Toby - Doublecheck the manual but I believe that some lower power E-Tecs can be pull-started (I believe this may include the 90hp). If so, and it starts, then you've narrowed the issue down to either...

The hull is 325 kilos alone (dry):

https://www.ribcraft.co.uk/ribcraft-professional-specifications/

With the engine that takes you up to 470 kilos, so I'd say you'll be under 700.

I've just re-done the deck on my 5m with Interdeck. Just mask up the area you want to paint, whack down one coat (one coat seems to be enough) and it'll be dry by the next day. Looks fantastic and,...

They also make the Tohatsu range of RIBs.

I've had my Porters for a couple of years now and I'm really pleased with it - they're not going to win any fashion parades but they're built well.

That's true but it's not a formal escrow. The agent effectively works for the landlord so you're still unlikely to see your deposit back.

Cillit Bang 'Grime & Lime' :thumbs:

Used it on my boat to clean a load of barnicles off the hull and lower tubes. Spray on, leave for 30 seconds and wipe off.

Right I'm lost - is it not Kernow's 535 that's for sale at £3,750? If it's that Searider I wouldn't pay more than £2,500.
