    How much are you looking to spend?

    I have a 5.2 mtr fast fishing boat with fully serviced 75hp mariner sat on a trailer that’s been dry stored for a number of years due to illness 

    total hours use is around 40 hours from new and everything was purchased new

    boat is similar to a merry fisher or arvor and has all the electronics 

    also has 5 hp mariner back up and a 3mtr inflatable with solid floor and 9hp mercury 

    Total package cost new would be around £32000 and valued recently at £14k so open to sensible offers 

    pm if you are interested and I will send pictures

    Thanks for your reply

    Sounds a lovely boat but out of my budget I’m afraid

    I have a leeward 18 I am considering letting go, was supposed to be my next project but reality kicks in, always something else to do.

    no outboard but on a superb trailer, self draining deck, needs a cabin/cuddy.

    pm me if of interest.

    Pm sent

  3. looking for a fishing boat

    something with a cabin/cuddy which I could use on the sea,

    Preferably on trailer, with or without outboard 

    something like an Orkney longliner

    Dont mind doing a bit of work

    Lovely machine - makes all the new ones look flimsy. I have an old Colchester Bantam lathe of about the same vintage that still performs well.

    My mill is Chinese - the best thing I've done is add the digital read-out, would be lost without it now.

    Hi

    Will be looking at fitting a dro in the future, need to source a decent vice first, 

    May I ask what vice is fitted to your mill

    Hello, that looks nice,  what sort of jobs will you be doing ? The ones we had in the old engineering shop co were from the 2nd war surplus stock from UK companies that no longer exist 

    Buying some gear when it comes up at the right money, 

    Have a couple of old tractors & stationary engines which need some parts made, 

    look forward to having a go myself rather than getting someone else to do it

  6. Been looking out for a milling machine,

    Been offered a couple of Chinese jobbys but  not really what I wanted 

    Ended up with this 1950 ish centec, needs a good clean up & a vice,

    complete with horizontal support & arbor,

    Thank you to everyone who have ordered leads! 
    I’ve nearly sold out but will make more over the next few days for posting out early next week. 
    Thanks for the support 👌🏻

    Hi

    Would like 2 x yellow please when available.

     

  8. Took the dogs out yesterday morning on a local footpath which I walk daily,

    Half way round my spaniel brought me a widgeon which had the breasts cut out,

    Rounded the corner onto a track to see feathers in the hedge bottom, what a sickening sight, a heap of geese & ducks,

    Pulled them all out, sixteen in total all with breasts cut out,

    Moved them out of public view as dog walkers use the footpath / track regularly ,

    Reported to local estate office,

    Why would anyone dump them for the public to see?  This sort of thing is bang out of order & gives the shooting folk & bad name,
