Well, now that I have abandoned The Broads and a regular access to the sparky stuff, I have some stuff I don't need or simply cannot use! Top of the list is a fancy dehumidifier!
A brand spanking, never even out of the box, Meaco DD8L 8 Litre Dehumidifier. The very one that was "Which" Best Buy 2014! Full guarantee still.
Available direct for £168 and you can find a supposedly new one on Fleabay for around £130. Anyone fancy it for around £100 plus whatever it costs to deliver. If you happen to inhabit God's Own County then we should be able to skip that!
As an aside, I also have a new Wychwood Solace 6 reel and Maver Genesis Black Ice Xtreme Feeder 12' rod going spare!
Why?? Convoluted story, My tackle got nicked, wasn't seriously good stuff, Shakespeare rod and Okuma reel but I liked them. Went to an angling treasure trove in Barnsley (some might know it), Fella there somehow managed to talk me into realising I needed this fancy stuff. I can't get on with it and have since bought an alternative Shakespeare rod and Drennan reel from elsewhere which are a lot more simple and me! So if anyone is interested there could be a bargain price! |

Have you got rid of the boat then Trev or just moved it?

You just need to get out on it now and enjoy the thing, where is it now?
I don't suppose you will miss the northern broads in school holiday time....

Its 10 minutes from home Dave! On the Calder & Hebble fifty yards from a pub! Been on it most days. Not always shifting but just watching the world go by and fishing!
Got a problem already though! Water tank has a leak and, believe me, its not easy to get at at all! |

Cut a hole in it and chuck a bladder in it.
If it's only 50 yards from a pub why do you need water anyway?????

Maybe putting Leo Magill up for sale soon, going to look at a storebro 31 at the weekend, 2x 200hp has a certain draw.

After all the work you have put into "Leo"?? Can't be easy parting.Will be interesting to see what sort of money she attracts.
Now Storebro! I always have thought that they look a real capable sort of boat. Assuming you mean the earlier ones. Not the gin palace lookalikes they seem to do more recently? They go for hefty sums as well! |

I'm looking at the 31' biscay from 1988.
Will certainly be hard to part with Leo, we've been a lot of places on her and covered many sea miles, just doesn't seem fair to take a dog on long trips with no loo break.

Dave, do you mean that the Storebro has got a dog loo on board?  |

That's a good idea but no.
But it will get there a lot quicker....

| Very nice, Dave. Will you register with the RNLI in advance or just spring the surprise on them when you, um, you know, sort of need them? |

Got that covered Ian, I'm going to wear a mask and wig when I call them.
Might not like it yet, not looking at it till saturday, boats can look fantastic on paper yet when you get on you can take an instant dislike to it, we did that on a fairline mirage we looked at.
