With the economy quickly going down the toilet does anyone think that any major manufacturers may be in trouble. What are the chances of companies such as Sealine, Suneeker, Fairline etc surviving?

Well, here we are in May. I am out of work. My wife is working. I still have my boat. In fact we are out this weekend, staying at a marina overnight.

I have cut my cloth.........

Shetland 535 2 berth cruiser. 35 HP Evinrude. Trailered from home.
£15 to launch and recover including parking.
£10 per day to use the river. Free mooring overnight at the marina and
the evening in the clubhouse
BBQ and breakfast on the bank.

Thats our bank holiday!

Laird Clive.
