Default Looking for a tow?

Anyone looking for a tow in Gloucestershire area?
Will be having my first season this year as a boat owner.
Looking for others in the area interested in having a bit of fun, nothing serious.
Looking to hire a private lake on the Cotswold Water park for some days throughout the spring and summer.
Have a Moomba Mobius 200 V-drive boarding boat, with wakeboard pro, etc.... all ready to ride.
Just need riders.
Looking to begin around April/May, depending on weather conditions.
Just fuel costs, nothing else, so very cheap!
Anyone interested, just drop me a private message.

I'll be up for a tow or two ;-) Haven't tried a Mobius before and it's always cool to put a face to login... assuming I didn't meet you last year up at Minsterworth!

Default Tow

Jeremy,Yes, we spoke at the club, but i didnt have a boat then.
Unlikely i'll get the boat into the club this year as membership is full, so i'll be looking at taking her to a private lake in the Cotswolds, cleaner and cheaper in the long run, but have to book in advance......so cannot guarantee good weather!
Will drop you a line nearer the season....too cold at the mo'

Wolfie,

I used to book the dates for my old club at Westhorpe and it's really pot luck as to the weather you have to ride in... I'd get the dates in the diary in January and it is very odd when you are asking for a session for the following September! The key thing to remember is the July/Aug dates are the most important to get right as you can be ultra gutted when it's lovely weather and you didnt' sign up for a session in advance.

With our setup we go out when the weather is good enough for flat water so if you are at a loss on a nice day always drop me an email as there may be space in the boat!

That's a great offer - ride behind a v drive boat on a private lake for just fuel costs! - I imagine you should be able to fill that pretty easily!
