mangy1983 51 Posted September 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 best remedy for sea sickness the bar. True! I was on the Clansman a few years ago with my girlfriend and her mate in quiet rough weather. They and most of the passengers were lying down seasick (again) and I went down to the bar and l was the only one there! It was pretty hard walking as the ferry was pitching side to side quiet badly. I walked up to the bar like a staggering drunk although completely sober and ordered a beer, whisky and steak and chips and was about to wait at the bar when the barman told me to have a seat and they would bring it over themselves. It went down nicely and more importantly it stayed down which in my book was a good result cheers Callum Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LOL Used a manual tow wrench type of tool to pull her upto the shoreline as she had sank out at the pink buoy. She weighed a tonne full of water and the stern of the boat was dragging the seabed which is muddy thankfully as the outboards were weighing it down. The pictures were taken at low tide and we went back down at high tide and managed to pull her up to sit on a ledge that we couldn't get her upto at low tide. Went back down at low tide emptied her out, rotated turned her bow so that she was parallel to the shoreline as she was lying at a 45 degree angle and she successfully re-floated on the tide. Went down again yesterday to try to start the auxiliary outboard but sadly no shark teeth about. cheers Callum Quote Link to post Share on other sites
