For next season, just to get him trained on how to use the heads.
His name is Rusty, will need to get him polished up a bit
Havent figured out how I am going to get him from the dinghy onto the boat on the mooring, as it was even difficult when he was only a couple months old, any bright ideas appreciated.

This is Tigger,
Yes, I know, and I wasn't in favour. However, it is very strong, and he can now swim in it. My missis convinced me that it would help us recover him if he went over the side, which made sense. The best thing about it is the handle on the back, which allows us to lift him from tender into boat with ease, and it's comfortable, so he's not bothered.

I believe the rear end locating pin has been know to discolour with use but I don't know the MOC.

Ok, while we're at it, here's a photie of my first mate. As the keener-eyed among you will be quick to realise, he's not actually on the boat - but he's a lurcher, been out for a run (which can be miles), and is now trying to remember where he left it.

Hi all.
Just re-setup my pc after having it reformatted.
Some lovely dogs there, true what they say, "A man's best friend"

He sure is a flat coat - great dogs aren't they? Is that Mayflower marina that you are on?

Yes. He's my third.... he's poshly called "Waybeyond Bright Cloud", but he had to be called after somewhere on the west coast of scoltland, as its one of my favourite places on earth. He was destined to be called Barra, but a friend of mine reminded me that if i had him cremated when he died, he'd be "Barra in Furnace"
and yes.. no prizes for guessing this particular marina!
