A Big Thank You To A Ribnet Member

I hope no one minds but I would just like to use this forum to thank someone for all there help this weekend when I took my boat to Conwy Marina, I only live about fiftey or so miles away but its a place I have never been or used so local knowledge of the slip and launch and recovery times where a complete mystery but that all changed when I made one simple phone call to a Ribnet member "Ged" you are a star man thank you for all your help this weekend without which there is no way I would have been able to manage, your help with the storage of the trailer all the help launching and recovering and your guidance on the water where invaluable nothing seemed to much trouble and so I felt the need to make a puplic thank you to someone I would personally class as a first rate Ribnet member.
I know there are other members that know Ged a lot better than myself and feel sure they would strongly agree with me and I feel safe in saying if anyone decides to go to Conwy to do some Ribing Ged would I'am sure extend them the same help.
Ged thank you once again and hopefully I will see you very soon.

Milan.

Milan, I quite agree. Ged helped and supported my Anglesey event as well as helping me out on other occassions. He is always there to assist in whatever the issue and never says no. He's a top bloke!

Knowing the Count of Conwy as I do, he'll be cringing at having smoke blown up his not unsubstantial arse on a public forum.

Ged

I am extremely grateful to Ged for his honesty and reliability which has been unwavering since we first met.

I have benefitted from his kind unselfish manner in looking after my family and myself, since he has rescued the situation for me on more than one occasion at sea.

With the help of Ged and Liverpool Power Boats I now have an exciting little RIB and hope to be getting out more often.

Thanks again mate
