1. Anonymity can be guaranteed. For a price.

3. Admin is not here to "support" you, it's here to "thwart" you.

4. Any Challenge will be Accepted...

Thought so. Friend of mine had this bilge keeler and we sailed it for many years in Strangford Lough. Out in many a rough day, and she stood it very well.

And a very nice part of Ireland or Northern Ireland ( got to cater for both sides ).
With a RIB is there a speed limit on the lough?
