I`d for get it for week at least see what these next highs do, where they land, what the winds are doing and from which way ,think about where your thinking of going in and watch web cams if abersoch sysc cam looks good you can see the slip on high water it may be worth a go ? North side could be totally different check ty coch web cam .just got home snow and 2 0c on a55 this morning joy. sorting kit and packing for bishop aukland cant wait....not...south side did look slightly flater last night with strong off shore northerly.

[Broseidon]

Great pictures Ian! Thanks for taking the time to put them up!

I 'de-winterised' my outboard yesterday - I haven't started it since early June and amazingly, it started second pull - massively relived! Gave it a good run, checked the oil, filters, pump etc - looks like it's good to go! New boat arriving next week - probably looking at May for her maiden voyage - no interest in chilly, murky,water. Can't wait!

 

[denian]

Charged the battery on mine last night, put a new prop on it to give it a bit more pull to get two spearos and kit up on To the plane.just checking it over will take it out first flat weekend.

 

[Broseidon]

What boat / engine combo have you got mate?
