Oops


Oops

Tip number 1. Always make sure you have a good hold of the model when removing it from the car. Only took 4 hours or so to get her patched up.



    Hi Will

    I'll bet you didn't say 'oops' when you dropped her  :cheers:

    Regards

    I'm a man of many words but I can honestly say that not a word passed my lips. I just walked off for a bit then returned, swept her up and went into the house. I still don't know why I didn't curse. I don't suppose it woulda helped anyway. Stupid thing is, I did it again when I somersaulted Alexanders! Hull was punctured with a chunk of lead but yet again I didn't curse.  I must be going ga-ga:-[

    Ah well, you just have to take the rough with the smooth...worse things happen at sea!  Very instructive to see this, and a very honest view of what we can all do if we aren't careful.  I am terrified when I handle a model - taking it home is the worst bit, I think.  Donald
    Reminds me of when we lauched a new crabber,we forgot we had a more powerfull winch. We lifted a keep box with two ton of crab and a fair few lobsters,it came up the side of the boat dead easy   too easy the bottem dropped out. I turned to my mate and he just said five words, LETS GO TO THE PUB. Just about sums it up lol.
