Hi everyone

Hi All

I've been looking at this sight and have now decide to join up,my name is Steve and retired last March after working in oceanography for 33 years and then Covid hit and scuppered alot of my plans for my retirement. On the boat front I've been in partnership for years and have had Pilot dory,Raider 18 wheelhouse and since 2008 a Aquafish 23 which is based in Haslar marina and fish Nab and Selsey areas and occasionally the Solent.

Hi Steve welcome aboard. If you have been looking at the site for a while you will be aware at what a great load of outlaws (pirates) most of the others are - great fun and very experienced though. Geoff.

Hi Steve

congrats on taking the plunge and joining up. Where did you hear about the site of you don’t mind me asking? 
we have a couple of guys with boats in Gosport. @Andy135 and @Scotch_Egg2012 are two of them. 
Hope you enjoy the site and please don’t be afraid to muck in, no such thing as a stupid question and all that! 👍🏻

Hi Steve, welcome.

Plenty of good advice to be had on here and plenty of friendly mickey-taking too 😉

As @Saintly Fish says, there are a few of us on here that boat out of Pompey. From memory, @Second Bite is also in Haslar.
