avon 620 v ring 600

On a serious note if driving in Guernsey, the maximum speed limit anywhere, I believe, is 35mph with St Peter Port centre having a max. of 25. Also watch junctions and roundabouts (painted circles) as they seem to give way to everyone.

Talk to Jason about your full spec. as he should be able to fit anything you want and do it well.

35 mph

Oh well, least i saved my self £10 and got a Ford Ka(lol) instead of a focus. Will me my son and a weekends kit fit into a Ford Ka??

I'm not sure they needed a full page advert this month in boat mart as they get plenty of free press on here.
and they have a full order book. things must be good.

[Ian]

Sorry Steve, this was your Avon 6.2 thread.
What electronics have you spec'd for your rib?

[simmons0]

I saw that advert, left the bloody magazine in wales though

Was there anything interesting in it?

[Steve Care]

Well

The Ford KA is a great little car that fits plenty as I have just bought a nice new black one as a third little run around and its nippy

[simmons0]

lets hear about ur boat.

[Ian]

How many little runarounds do you need???

So maybe they decided that a UK distributor was an unnecessary overhead? This is just me speculating!!!

[Ian]

I read on RIBnet that Paul Lemmer was a distributor. What have you heard Richard?
Sorry Steve, back on Pro Sports.

[simmons0]

Ian, what have you chosen in the way of GPS/Plotter(s)?

Not last weekend when i was there


I've ordered a Plastimo colour 5500i with my rib and it was £550 inc which I thought was a good deal

[Ian]

Garmin 126 (the one with the integral twig). I have been delighted with the 128 on my old rib and have no need for a plotter in the role the new one will perform and the money could be better spent on seating etc. Jason spec'd the DCS and sonar.

Sorry Richard, it's late and I missed that bit. But is Paul now a PS distributor do you know? Charles posted earlier he was and that Charles himself was the Jersey agent.

[Steve Care]

Cars are my main toy at the moment but i'm being converted slowly to ribs

Mind thinking of ordering a new 6 series

[simmons0]

Hmm, i like the look of that 126, how much did Jason charge for it?

[Steve Care]

Ian

Which vhf will you be getting with dcs

Steve, just wait 'till you've spent next summer on the water... the beemer will be in the Auto Trader and the Scorpion 8.5 will be on order

(Your wife will probably have divorced you though!)

[simmons0]

oh, amazon.com are selling a GPS 126 for $261.99

Hope that doesnt make you cry Ian...

[Ian]

A bit less than I could buy here even when adding the vat but he will fit all electronics you buy from him for nothing, and a very very neat job they make of this.
Best give some thought to electronics before you go, you need to know what you want and then discuss the suppliers with him. He'll give you ideas as well and you'll probably come away with a totally different spec. to the one you leave home with on Saturday morning to catch you CHEAP flight.

Don't buy it off Amazon. That's more than I am paying.
DCS is Jason's spec. I asked him as I didn't have a preference. Only the 126 I spec'd as I didn't want another twig that breaks when some heavy handed diver can't be bothered to stand up to take the dive flag down.

I love the swivel twig with the radio though. Great when trailoring about.
