    Welcome aboard Andy. Given you are in the Solent area, you are not far from one of the original Mariah vendors. Southwater Marine in Hambles, Southampton used to sell original Mariah's way back when. If you are in the area, David Allen is still in charge and welcomes Mariah owners to stop by and say hello. Tell him we sent you!

    As for any 'dum ass' questions.... feel free to post away!

    Sure there are. I had one boater this summer tell me he didn't have his maps with him and wanted to know "How far it was across 6 Mile Lake"..... and yes he was driving a Bayliner.
