Hi everybody
First of all, brilliant forum you chaps have.good source of knowledge and tips.
My name is Andrew from Trawden in Lancashire and a friend of John Honwave who is a member on here.
Just on with a purchase of a zodiac classic mark 1 with a 9hp Tohatsu outboard.which is from a friend of john's.
But last weekend I bought a Tohatsu 20hp 4 stroke on a impulse buy from a member on here called Malcolm from fleetwood. Very nice chap too!!
Me and J.Honwave decided to test it on his boat last Sunday on Coniston, Cumbria.
First I was shown the ropes by J.H and told to take control. Had a real blast, moored up for some lunch then up to peel island, tested a fish finder, then told to go reluctantly back to the car.
All I can now think of is my next venture out.
Andrew.

Hi Andrew and to the forum
That's a nice setup you've got there with the Zodiac and Tohatsu
I've the same OB as you and I'm very pleased with it I've had it just over 3 years and it's had plenty of use and towing toys not missed a beat (or have I jinxed it now)
As previously said, we're a friendly bunch of fellow like minded boaters willing to share our knowledge, so just join in and fire away with any questions you may have
There's a golden rule on here of "there's no such thing as a silly question" so never be afraid to ask
Good to have you aboard

[Capt Zode]

Thank you for the friendly welcomes everybody. Will be posting some more stuff soon as my journey into the boat world progresses..

Welcome aboard captain...
Thanks for the comments regarding the forum, we've got a great bunch on here that make it the community it is.

Plenty of us between Huddersfield and the west coast now, we'll all have to get together for a fishing trip out of Blackpool or a run to the top of ullswater and back

Enjoy the forum
