new boat

[Norman]

Duh ....... can you vary the engine speed like? I thought it was just on or off?

 

[KeithB]

Norman, you only know two speeds FAST & FASTER lol

 

[mark]

3 speeds surely, fast, faster and not fast enough

 

[DaveMason]

duty is another topic Ron , why should we pay it ? We dont drive on any roads and get nothing in return

norman , thats the little handle on your right hand side , the horizontal one which should be vertical

 

[boblydon]

Dave...on Normans boat his is banana shaped with pressing down that hard on it to gain a few extra knots

 

[DaveMason]

I bet those Airbus wings have got a bend in them as well Bob , economy and Norman are total strangers I\'m afraid .

 

[ronw]

I agree dave but its an easy way to swell the coffers for the government also read there are plans been put forward for leisure boaters to contribute a yearly fee towards bouyage and navagational aids add to the proposals to have sea fishing licences and your on to a canny earner if your names Gordon Brown.

 

[boblydon]

not long now Ron, bet you will have a sleepless night tonight in anticipation of your big boys toy arriving tommorow...................as all the lads will agree theres nowt like seeing your new baby coming down towards royal quays on the back of an artic or trailer, the first sight i got of my new boat was coming out of the tyne tunnell on the back of an artic lorry.....what a sight !!!!! Iwas also laughing coz on the radio they said expect delays at the tyne tunnel, they had to close it down for 20 minutes because it was to high and had to have both lanes.........at teatime rush hour!!!!! haa ha

 

[ronw]

bet your ears were burning Bob lol , should be here tommorow have\'nt heard anything to the contrary. used to sleepless nights though got 15 month old twins!.

 

[boblydon]

come on ron, nearly 48 hours since your last post...do we take it you love the new boat so much that you havent got off it yet ?????tell us about it, and post a pic or 2 for the lads who dont know what the 620 looks like...............................anyway hope your really pleased with it

 

[ronw]
