Very carefully.....I have one heck of a job to not bash her moving her from the hobby room!

I invested in a Volvo v70 estate so I can cart the boats (and subs and tanks etc) about! She's not my largest, that goes to my typhoon :

1.7m and 23kg! A real pig to move! (The sub not my sister....)

The daft thing is that I like boats, I even built two, but there is nowhere around here to run them, so I sold them on. You would think that a city this size would have a damned boating lake??

However I feel your pain, back in Shrewsbury me and my dad wanted to sail our yachts and ended up having to drive to Borneville by brimingham to sail them!

Not that far away...well about 20 miles I think?? But it is a pain in the proverbial to get across there from my side of Bristol, I'm only ten minutes from Bath.

Very salubrious Mr Hugoll.
Do sailboat captains in the RC fleet despise the Gin Palace captains in RC just like real life ??!!!
