Hello folks, I posted a few weeks ago, I took the advice of everybody people on here and some boating friends. We took the sib to Upton marina for our first launch, fantastic place great people who pointed me in the right direction. We had about two hours on the river , my young girls who were nervous really enjoyed it. Looking forward to going back again. I can see this hobby leading to something bigger!!!

It looks like you had the perfect weather conditions and venue for the first outing.

Glad you had a great trip.....just be wary something bigger is not always better.......I fell into that trap, went from a Humber 5m sib to a Fletcher Faro, which sat on its trailer for a few years...was a pig to launch and recover expensive to run and was sold when I finally realised I was spending more time cleaning the green sludge of it that using it !!!
