Went into the marina office to ask a few questions to be told they stopped trading at the end of November!
No answer to the phone number, but the website is still up and running so I’ve dropped them an Email.
I hope they are not another victim of the economy!
Sad times
That is not good news at all.

I've sent David an email & hopefully, being the very decent chap that he is, he will respond with some info.

    Nothing to date. Hopefully he is simply on vacation somewhere.

    Cold but sunny here today, so I made the most of it.
    Fitted a decent set of speakers in the back of the cockpit and moved the light from under the side pods to somewhere useful. I replaced them with some ambient blue lighting.
    Installed a ski mirror (very carefully) to the screen and finished cleaning up the back end.
    Finally got the painted name off and I’ve started putting the new decals on.

    Whoa, did you add that trim around the round shield logo in the back? To look like a devil with a triton? That's pretty sweet, I've never seen anything like that before!!

    The snows all gone now! What a load of fuss over nothing….
    So with the aid of a fan heater I was able to get the new graphics on today.
    Many thanks to those members on here who helped me get my hands on original Mariah shields,
    they really do make all the difference.

    Before and after
