Selling my Boat

[oldessox]

Been reading this since you first posted it Chris , but didn't really know what to say, most of the things I was thinking have been said, the rest I'll keep to myself , if I type them here I might end up selling my boat
All the best with whatever you do this year, I'm sure you'll get out plenty mate even without your own boat

I accepted an offer on the boat today after 2 lads viewed it yesterday, and i thought i'd never sell it at this time of year. Thanks for all your comments lads

Bloody hell that was fast mind you i know what condition the boat was in so i had no doubt it would sell is it staying local mate or off down the country again we will have to arrange a bit shore fishin before it ends all the best mate

Ha Ha , anything to do with beer Rob and you never forget, . I'll be in touch about a trip out, maybe show you how to blank in style

Aye Deano, still going to do a bit of beach fishing now and then, so i let you know mate

not a boat owner but I play the lottery every week in the hope that one day I can have one...must have been a hard decision but there other things that are more important at times

I'm sure we'll still be hearing from you

Tony, Once your fishing tackle empire takes off, you'll have a boat , but that will leave Norman a bit lonely without his right hand man

[Kev1n]

Condolences Chris, that must have been a hard choice to make. Financially, having a boat makes no sense at all so it is a measure of the enjoyment we get that we overlook the cost. If other interests like looking after the little-uns come long it rebalances the equation and sometime something has to give. Some things you never give up, you just don’t do any more; if you want a trip out from the RQ when Norman is busy you’re welcome to come with us.

I think that Norman has been secretly been training Tony in preparation for his lottery win. He’s graduated from cabin boy to become assistant skipper, looking through last years photo’s.

Not such a fast career progression then. Looks like your lottery win will have to wait a little longer.

Thanks for that Kev, some wise words there, i'll be keeping an eye on Tony's progress as 1st mate, should be some good laughs along the way...

i just hope tony can cope with all this,
he has had considerable change in his life in tha last year or so

getting married

new job

and now promotion on the boat

they do say things come in threes

[The Great Wallsendo]

all just sounds like hard work to me - that's all three of the things Dunc's just mentioned that is

[Falcone]

Any movement on the boat chris? Hopefully wont be long and you'll be skippering again.

Yes Stewey, I met the lads yesterday morning and it's a case of waiting for the cheques to clear then it's theirs. I was just lucky it was the type of boat they wanted and there was no M/F 635's for sale up North.
