That looks ace!

I don't know much about these sorts of boats, but that's a river runner right? Would it be worth puting more security loops somewhere on the boat, or are them thwats pritty strong?

I'll be playing with one of these courtesy of Des-Mes a bit later in the year... but I can't afford one, unless I sell my Prelude, which kinda defeats the point

I know I've said it before, but I'll say it again anyway - what's the point? Why don't they just make the hole a bit smaller so that you can fit a spraydeck, it'll save having to jump out of it at the bottom of every drop to empty it out.

Mind you, as a kneeler-upper myself I haven't really been able to explain why it's better than sitting down - it just is.
