Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached
If you have tech problems with the forum, please post them in the support section as they may be helpful for other people. We do have a file size limit of a maximum 500k per image file and a maximum of 4 image files per user post. That said, there is an overall quota for attachments on the board - I'll look into increasing this if it is the problem.

Have ordered a couple of Wise front seats (Navy blue), as the top deck and stripe are now a nice metallic dark Blue painted today in my work.. The benefits of working in a car body repair shop :D

All going well the new seats, deck cleats will be delivered by Friday and I will be on my maiden voyage down the Thames estuary on Saturday, as want to get a few months out of it before I redo the hull chips and paint.

Thanks again..

They are great boats, having loads of fun with mine just got some carpet for it and hoping to finish my wish list this winter.
My wish list or to do list is;
nav lights
anchor light
interior lights
neon light under bump strip
stainless cleats
flag pole holder
battery box
switches
fuse box.

It tow's the stunt flyer iv got well and seems to handle well in choppy water spraying any waves out to the sides and not over us which my Arriva19 did and anyone sat in the bowrider would get soaked Lol.
Really need to get a new screen sorted for it as on your boat it looks like the proper one, can you still get them iv asked Stewarts if he can help so fingers crossed. :D

Up date on my Broom Gemini twitchy that i think came from twitch, well its been a few years now that iv owned her for and its been a running project boat iv been saving up over the two years to get all the bits I really wanted for it,
It now has
new carpet,
pop up 4 inch stainless cleats (very smart)
inboard 33l fuel tank with filler nozzle behind the back cleat.
side panels,
Waiting to be fitted next is
Bow light,
anchor light,
flag pole and holder,
battery box,
10way fuse box,
switches,
cockpit lights,
12v socket for flash light on night trips
and in two weeks time I can pick up my long awaited seats, two front and one custom built back bench seat, iv had them made in brilliant white with a navy blue racing strip through
the middle, they took me about 8 months to save up for and are well worth the wait, really looking forwards to getting them in and hope to be ready for the Mudeford life boat fun day on the 24th July only a few weeks away, if any one is interested here is its link its a great day out high light is the raft races through the run :woo:
