Well done on the quick sale ........👍 thejollysinker 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thejollysinker Posted November 24, 2023 Author Share Posted November 24, 2023 I’ve had an offer from a boat owner there with a Quicksilver, bit bigger than mine, to go out with him to help him learn more about fishing and he says we could do a deal whereby I do cleaning and maintenance on his boat then I can use it for longer fishing trips on my own….. take some thinking about will that one 🤔 Geoff, Andy135 and Dicky 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 Lucky you, sounds like a good arrangement. In a fair world it means that you return the boat after your trip with the same amount of fuel as you started with! Geoff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a great guy, getting on a bit now and looking for a bit of help here and there and some advice on the fishing front as he’s not done very well in the past. really not sure I’d want the responsibility of looking after someone else’s boat though….
