New home for Aquahound
Aquahound has departed today for her new home with the ASA at Chichester.

I'm sure those nice pongoes will look after her well.

Now it's eyes down for a RC585, I must dust off that dream spec I've devised. although not sure when we'll be back on the water.

Even harder.....what to call a new boat- took long enough to come up with Aquahound (longer than the actual build)!

Thanks Xk59D,
Seen that one, but would need to change engine for a DF140, plotter for larger one, change the tube colour and find a trailer

Not that I'm fussy.

Hi Shaz,

You;ll just have to book some powerboat courses with the Army Sailing Association...should have persuaded your training organisation to buy her

What are you saying about Shaz's SR?

You'll have the SR Mafia descending on you

Haha my organisation are spending all of their money with RS (dinghies) and other sailing things at the moment. Apparently we do have some new RC585's on order though, so I can't complain too much.

I need to move on from the SR but can't quite bring myself to do it!
