I want to be able to do much more (and an i.pad can cost only a very small amount more, about £300 to be precise, hardly worth a second thought really). Horses for courses then. Thanks for your link to buy an i'pod. Bit late, I bought mine a couple of...

Why do you think I'm wrong? My logic is simple. Kindle only provides one function. Exactly that function is to be had on an i.pad., but, for a few quid more, the i.pad gives you hundreds of extra functions. So, when travelling or living aboard, with an i.pad all your needs are covered in one piece o...

. Thursday 8th July 2010-06-19 It got very gusty, then we were hit by one gust that must have been well over forty and maybe fifty knots. The boat took off, reaching 8.3 knots before I managed to furl the genoa down to about a no.3 jib. This was still plenty in the gusts, when we were reaching over...

i wonder where this thread is going. we now have a poll showing ( at best ) about 105 transits per annum and a dead reckoning of about 3600 transits in three months. something there for both sides of the waterway perhaps :mrgreen: Hi, been in New York for a while so catching up.

[quote="Nick"] . When it comes to selling boats I would rather create an affordable online brochure which the owner can then link to from his free/cheap online ads.[/quote I liked this idea so I, independently, contacted both yachtmarket and boatshop24. Their answers were that they offer t...

I've been worrying about that since you first wrote it.
How about we write in Latin or in Gaelic? Doubt they've got those languages.

. It's so quiet in here that I have been reduced to making the odd non-controversial post in another place. So far today I have been told I have 'stupid knee jerk reactions', been called a dimwit, an 'awful prig', told I should not dare to pontificate, been offered a free flight to Mogadishu by two...
