tuffyluffy 76 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 The Thursday of Cyclone Cook. Fortunately we dodged a bullet. Ahh, the old TBC!. I'm glad I wasn't the only idiot to get a keeler under that bridge on a flood tide and into a power boating club. I trust Charlie didnt pickle your liver Quote Link to post Share on other sites

chariot 243 Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Well done. Pretty good for a Cav 26. Nice to see an older boat getting some of the silver ware. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

idlerboat 116 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 .. nice pics Its a shame about Harrison. He was treated so badly for such a craftsman.... ...in fact so much more...he really understood the whole problem, both from a mathematical point of view and from a practical point of view...

Black Panther 1,584 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Yes. That one was at the science museum. We also have a trup planned to the Greenwich maritime museum. But right now my feet hurt. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DrWatson 375 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Went to Sainte Marine, Bretagne. Watched a Pogo 30 short tack up the ditch... impressive to say the least. Completely killed the other late model plastic boat of similar dimensions doing exactly the same thing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DrWatson 375 Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 We'd all like to think so, but Kea is also a Greek Island... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
