Well I'm not going to lie to you kartonkel, I was fuming when I first read your reply and even more so when you wouldn't drop it. I'm here for the same reasons as the rest of us... To make friends within the sport we love, receive advice and maybe even try to help people out if I can, I'm not here to argue. Yes, I am stubborn and yes, I am always right haha but I spend my working life weighing up risks and possibility/ probability of the outcome which does help toward making decisions out of work. I'd never put my brother or myself in serious danger and I certainly wouldn't put anybody else's life in danger through stupidity. Although I've only owned the boat for 7 months or so, I've been failiarising myself with it for around 3 years I put a lot of faith into it and rightly so, its whats keeping me dry out there but I still don't know everything and probably never will which is why I'll take any advice aslong as it's given the correct way. To be honest kartonkel, you sound like the sort of bloke I need on my side! Experience is invaluable and although is like to think I have most areas covered, that's 1 thing I'll admit I don't have the most of

Well lingking I'm all up for turning this thread into a sh!t happens at sea thread, we've all had them days and as far as I'm concerned, if it all ended well then we should be able to laugh/reminisce. The laughs started as soon as we were safe yesterday, we managed to drag the engine back onto the boat my bro turned round and said, "well at least its not raining"
Does it match my battery fire at 6 miles out ??
just one tale would make a battery fire seem a very minor issue

wow, I've taken my tin hat off now . I thought we were heading for ww3. The main thing is that nobody was hurt(except egos) and hopefully lessons learned. After all we are all in the same boat (hopefully not fishermans blues ) only joking. Kartonkel , you do have an evil streak... you bounder. .. hows the boat?

You couldn't get on my boat mate, the deck is full of empty fish boxes ( unused) and an outboard that thinks its an inboard!

We have all had them days when EVERYTHING goes wrong and when you look back its a big learning curve and just put it down to "wont do that again"
I've had lots of them types of days and ive been at this boating malarkey for donkeys years !
Its a good job i never posted them on here with all the know it all supposed experts that im sure have had one of those days at some point in there nautical life
And i thought it was a bit harsh the way it got out of control !
Fisherman's blues i had a right chuckle about your day to remember and im sure you just posted to make people do the same and i am sure you have learned and moved on because that's what its all about

Cheers tadpoleman, im happy knowing somebody laughed! I'm glad people can see what went on aswell! With a bit of clever editing the man has managed to take out most of his digs and add extras later so he can have his own laugh! Telling his mates they will have a new wreck soon haha :yltype: with his track record I'm not surprised he's scared of going to sea

have to agree, kartonkel is ok. He is very methodical and can be critical but like he say's it's the German in him, but I get on with him fine after an early skirmish mutual respect prevailed. Germans aren't renowned for their sense of humour but he has one and I found his dissection of your report very amusing.
WHAT A GREAT THREAD.got to admit it did sound like a sketch from LAUREL @ HARDY.next you say your going to paint it,gets better.he,he,he,he.well im pleased that your CONFIDENCE @ ABILITY,got yous back safe,HAWAY MAN,yous never left the MARINEA.all jokeing aside,hope yous 2 have a great cod season at sea SAFELY.ps,your brothers not FAT,by any chance.he,he,he,sorry couldent resist it.least it wasent raining?youve got me scratching my head now.finally ill say it again,what a great thread @ you took all replys with a good sense of humour.{take care},even more when you steam out of MARINEA.
