JDP Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Never had an aux outboard and never needed one, very few boats have them over this side of the pond. Trying to get back to shore with a little putput on the back would take me around 3 days!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saintly Fish Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 Right @KennyPowers I’ve been and seen the explorer. And here is proof, it’s a straight boat. They haven’t cleaned it so it’s a bit grubby but looks ok. Matey did offer me the paper work to look at but I didn’t bother because the fact that he even offered it without me asking was proof enough he had it! Id say you will need a new vhf radio or at least a hand held back up. The one on there is pretty old. Not saying it doesn’t work , but if it were me I’d replace with a new dsc type. Could be a bargaining chip for you. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. jonnyswamp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is excellent news, nobody’s cleaning is good enough for me so I’ll not worried about that, new radio isn’t a problem either, one trip out it’ll be covered in fish guts and scales, that’s one advantage JC has over me because he never catches anything his boat is nice and clean🤣🤣 so if you can just give him the 10k and I’ll wait down Bridgemarsh for it to be delivered😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
