Popular Post Odyssey Posted January 1, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 1, 2022 New addition to the team today…. Just need to fit new transducer (or mechanic can) when boat comes out for engine service and that’s the last of the majors done… Im leaving the heating until next year as I’m not sleeping on board until spring. New lights all work, nice to see what I’m doing in the dark now… useful for overnight shark trips 😁 Roll on spring, I’m fed up of winter gales… want some clear water for reefing, wrecking and sharking now!

headlight Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Luke your boat is moored very dangerously and presents a health and safety danger to other marina users. Also your boat goes to fast. As an ex bank worker and "elite" shark skipper (with nearly one seasons experience I"ll have you know) I feel I have the right to issue you a formal warning in respect of your bad boat parking and boy racer style of driving !

headlight Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 I was going to see one but the day before I was due to see it the owner increased the price from £40k ono to offers in excess of £44.5k so I gave it a miss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t blame you, even negotiating would get you back to the original price and nobody likes paying the full asking price.

headlight Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Seller reckoned he'd had an offer of £43k. I don't know if that was true but I was not interested in getting into a bidding war. It's now on B&O or FAFB for £44.5k so I have my doubts he did receive an offer of £43k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
