What a great weekend on the Thames
      11/05/2008 17:07

I just stayed messing around at Sunbury this weekend with the new toy and had a great time . After pulling Cuchilo over to the river bank i tootled off to the lock to get a weekend licence for Coochie and then spent most of Saturday blasting around at 8 kts
Mr Fanner popped over for a pint and a chat in his tender and i got a quick look at his air deck ( question about this later )and then it was time for a trip down river with a rather nice female .
Back to Cuchilo for a BBQ and then finished the night off with a few pints in the newley refurbished Pheonix pub . Nice what they have done to it but it's more of a wine bar feel now and hardly any female bar staff
Today was another great day with a wander up the creek by the side of the weir and then the most pointless trip ever . I went up to Lindon lewis marine in the new toy to get some fuel so i could get back to Sunbury Although i did pick up an extending tiller and had great fun so not all pointless .
Back at Sunbury i bumped into a friend that has just bought two hire boats and was having a play around with them so more messing around with boats
All in all a great weekend and i only did a fiver on fuel

Now a question on the air deck for a wetline 2.4m 265 AR . Do they only sell the floor as an air deck or is there a cheaper version like a wooden floor ? I'm tempted to just drop a plywood floor in there but i dont want to if it's going to put the stresses in the wrong places and rip the hull out

Dont come running to me if you fall over and break your leg .
