    `how do`bloody yottie-your hardly gonna be slurping pimms at cowes anyway-admit it-it`s another fishing boat you need-then nobody would pay any heed to the handle of the deckbrush being swiped to dip the diesel tanks, to stick a gps aeriel on or to lengthen the roller for putting on the antifoul-you just can`t liberate yer wifes sweeping brush if yer a true yottie-but you can steal ANYTHING  from the house thats not nailed down for your fishing boat-that`s fair enough! :cheers: O0

    as i said before-i`m a `realist`-i just know the kind of him!-seen it all before fishermen and yats-they all lack the `finnesse`for yella wellys-also their language is usually to colourful for most marinas-they will favour fishing harbours anyway and will get huffed when the fishermen think he`s `justanotherbloodyyottie`! and he`ll say iwasbloodyfishingwhenyouwereinshorttroosersyaweeshite!-don`t deny it :whistle: :whistle: :cheers:
