I am in no rush really Bob, would be nice to get one this season but cant see it un until next year. Apart from the house i have no other debts so that will give me a chance to make a down payment on a boat, my dad is also chipping in as my man dont want me to get one and he thinks it's a good way of peeing her off

Defo getting more and more drwn into the Quicksilver 500ph witht he new 4s out board, by no means the ebst boat on the market but it is like the Fords of the car world, canny and does the job but nowt special.

get your money spent yer tight git, by the way what type of boat did you just sell ???, have you seen the fish eagle for sale on hartlepool marinas site, must be bargain of the year at that price especially with the outboard engine on the back of it

It was a shetland shanty project that i started at the end of last year real mess it was but never had the time and also lost interest in the idea.

So much choice on the market our days you can be looking for months. Not really wanting to buy new, would like to find one already kitted out and ready to go, i am in no rush, got loads of trips booked around the uk this year already.

Missed off...yer i had seen that one in person, had a day out at the pool, hull,sunderland and Tyne looking at boats. In person it looked a clean boat, someone has a good buy in that one.

Very few second hand boats around that fits our kind of bill mind, was shocked when i started looking. Down south, like Hampshire and so on has loads.

I was close in Feb to getting a quicksilver 500ph at Hull, all kitted out with some good gear, just been serviced with records, 60hp with a 15hp back up all for £7600. When i rang to see when i could visit and take her out i was told to late sold .

Nice boats Sean, but i need a bit of a cabin to stand up to keep out of the weather cos i am a soft ****e

[boblydon]

Ritchie, i have a few dealers ( all down south ) looking for a suitable boat, as we appear to be after the same style of boat, let me know what your preferences are, size, type and budget and we may be able to do a good deal on a couple of new ones, even second hand ones from the same dealer and save ourselves a few quid each, also you are better getting them without electrics as there are some good deals to be done online from the states, that way your getting what you want....pm me if you dont want to disscus etc money etc on the board
