I took Stormy to Huddersfield Motor Club last Monday night for their club night.

As part of the "news" there was a plea from possibly Mull Motor Club, I didn't take much notice, anyroad, they are desperate for Marshalls next weekend and were offering free ferry rides to Mull to get some bodies there, there were no takers.
Seminole.
Cheers Bob.

Using a boat as a fender

The vessel in your pic looks as though she's motoring at around five or six knots which I would consider to be inappropriate in fog without an active radar. In this particular case I presume that the pictured vessel was keeping in sight the boat from which the pic was taken, and would therefore be able to avoid any likelihood of collision with rocks or other vessels, and provide assistance if necessary.

One can only wonder what the helm of the lead vessel would be like on a motorway!

I think I need to own up to CW; there was a, errmm, "motorway incident" later that day, but it didn't involve a Bentley!

If you do a search on this site for "lion king" you might find a relevant thread. There's also a photograph somewhere, but it would be very unfair of me to point you in that direction.
