Thank you

Towers on now... just finishing Bimini top.... Then it's onto Stage 3!

Have finally fitted the bimini and also a new bilge pump and blower (mmm 1 hour in the engine bay in the bright sunshine).

As well as tinkering on the boat I have been busy on overhauling the Wakeboard UK website so the next thing on the list is to go wakeboarding (now the boat is ready) and 2 get the pimp my bob tower install online... here's another piccy or two from the install.

Jeremy,

How much ballast did you add to Bob? I didnt get a chance to see her in action close up as the water was too flat up the river!! Wakesurfing looked pretty cool tho!

Dave,

Yeah, good to see you again.. will definitely explore upstream a bit next time... though we had an awesome session on the main straight so can't complain ;-)

Ballast wise the two front sacs turned up from the Tower Fairy so we put them in the back and they worked very well. We had the WUK Creedys on board and Graham had his funky wakesurf which Ali and I loved... Ali managed to surf nearly the entire length of the straight once I got the speed dialed in.. can't wait to get the two main fatsacs so I can balance the boat a bit better and put a bit more weight in. The wake for boarding felt good, only had time for a couple of hits at the end of the session but got launched so was pleased. How did your sesh go? you all looked happy, it was a fantastic day for us...

It was amazing to finally be out in some sun, I think we were all so used to getting rained on and sub-summer temps!
