Crazy prices!

Plenty of both here today. Very bruuzing.
The falling domp seems to have abated here for now. Also the bruuze. Pity it's so cold and dark outside. I don't fancy trying to install a 6 metre length of gutter just now.

When I first joined WBF they made me write a book to prove I was a real yachty. I was so gullible.
The seagull hit the main sail fast enough to flatten right out. I hope it sprung back like in the cartoons.
It's amazing some of the things you don't see when you first look at a photo.![]()
They'll still be expensive (maybe 70% - 80%) but you can do better than that for the Davey ones if they're the ones you really want, or probably a bit better still for our own local ones. However, they're by no means cheap items -- especially the opening ones.
PM me if interested further.

Visit us to see how we help people complete classic boats authentically.
Actually Classic Marine are quite a bit cheaper Peter, by my calc's anyway, those prices you are comparing are between opening and non opening ones. I think the smallest of the opening ones are about AUD120.00 cheaper to buy in the UK from Classic Marine than they are here through Classic Boat Supplies (GBP306.00 v AUD645.00).
I'd vaguely been thinking of buying them over there when (if) we head over to the UK and Ireland early next year and now that Rick has raised the subject he has me thinking of that again and what to do about it.

BTW Rick, check out Alibaba for round portholes that should be suitable for the house.

They are from my daughter in the US. I gave her a choice of two, I didn't expect both.

Hoping for a sail on Sunday. Kerry was going to come but she fell over last night and hurt her coccyx. It's a shame because it's pushing two years since she last came for a sail.Sunday 10 July
Partly cloudy. Slight (20%) chance of a shower along the coastal fringe, near zero chance elsewhere. Light winds. Overnight temperatures falling to between 7 and 10 with daytime temperatures reaching the low 20s.

Came across a Brother industrial sewing machine today for only $200. I'm selling some more stuff on Tuesday so if I top the mark and it's still there I'll buy it.

I don't get it. Why is JB laughing/schnorking?

Follow me and everything will be alright just wont be tucking you in at night.
You will be up against WB two second scratch finishes and one third. which would have become a first and second if handicaps had been applied. In this last race Glen Slight's TS was just too far ahead to have changed anything.
