For Sale: Heads Up - Boatworld Daily Deals

[chipko]

Just a quick heads up.

Throughout January Boatworld are having daily deals with up to 75% off.

Today’s deal is a Demon 2 towable for just £37.50. Just ordered one to replace our aging Airhead Slash II

Worth keeping a weather eye out just in case there’s something you don’t really need but just can’t resist.

Hi chipko, do you think it would be suitable for a couple small kids/light teenager behind a sib/20hp?

[chipko]

Absolutely Steve, the kids had loads of fun back in the day on towables, kneeboards, wakeboards etc behind our sibs with 20 horse motors.
The Demon/Airhead style toys are not that draggy so will be fine behind a sib. They’re also steerable and often the go to choice with our kids. Great fun.


Steve, not on a Demon but here’s No 1 son getting a soaking behind our old Zodiac/Suzuki 20 combo. Two up in the boat and still plenty of Ooomph!

Just about to order then thought tow rope! Is this suitable:-

Unfortunately tow bridle is out of stock

[chipko]

Am sure that would be fine although personally I would go with the two person rated line.

Our favoured bridle is the Airhead cable jobbie with floating pulley. Less risk of fouling prop with the cable type.

Or go with the Boatworld rope copy as it’s still got the floating pulley and quick connect system.

Thanks Chipko, all ordered

[chipko]

Nice one Steve.

I looked at the towable and despite having no need was super tempted at that price. Asked Mrs F if she would like to be towed behind to make room in the boat and now things are a bit tense.

The first thing Diane said when I showed her the towable was, "will I be able to go on it" - I then showed her chipko's video!

Another watersports goody today….a pair of entry level adult combo skis. Heck even the bag is worth more than £37.95

Wish I had a Rib/hard just to take advantage of such a good offer!

Boatworld goodies delivered today, will be inflated in the lounge tomorrow

[Steve509926]

Really pleased with that chipko.

Any specific pressure or just "thumb" pressure?

[Fenlander]

Looks great for under £40, back to £75 now.

[chipko]

Nice one Steve. Glad it’s all good.

The young’ uns will have some fun on that.

Can’t remember pressure, we just inflate until firm….ooer!

Thanks for the heads up on the demon2, mines arrived. can't wait to give it a go

[chipko]

Steve, craigh…pretty sure you’ll have a whale of a time with the Demon 2

It’s pretty much a straight copy of the Airhead Slash 2 which we have, and the kids favourite as steerable to an extent. Great solo or two up.

Anyone else find the boatworld website not working?

[Fenlander]

Yep. My iPhone is blocking the site and even if I override the block the site doesn’t open at the moment

[Steve509926]

Yep me too. Can't get onto the site at all.

[chipko]

Ditto.
