DeanS Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 Im not, but possibly more info would encourage others to respond.....if you need help, perhaps indicate what you need?

Dar Kuma Posted April 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 Need someone to have a look at a boat for me if they could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanS Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 Need someone to have a look at a boat for me if they could. like water from a stone. Is the boat broken and you need assistance? what is broken or not working? Do you need towing? Are you trying to buy a boat and need advice? No one is going to respond unless you take about 3mins to put more info on what you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matty40s Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 I looked at a boat at Atherstone this morning, in fact I looked at several, does this help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dar Kuma Posted April 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 Well, you know, not trying to draw attention to said boat as I want to buy it, And if I start giving details on the forum then it maybe sold before I get the chance. I have emailed the person of said boat, just need someone to check it out as I'm in cornwall and it's a bit far considering I have a course on the 6th of may.

system 4-50 Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 Are you saying that you are considering buying a boat without having seen it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haggis Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 (edited) OK, I can understand your reluctance (I think) to name the boat but what do you mean by "check it out". Do you want someone to look at the paintwork and tell you how that looks? do you want someone to look inside and tell you how they think it looks? Do you want someone to test all the appliances and see if they work? Do you want someone to start the engine and see how it sounds or do you want them to have a good look at engine and related bits and tell you if they are OK? In fact, do you want someone to survey the boat? Remember, an optimist looking at something will think it is wonderful and a pessimist will think it is falling to bits. Sorry not to be more helpful but just trying to clarify what you want so that someone may respond positively to you. I can't as I am even farther away than you haggis Edited April 20, 2013 by haggis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dar Kuma Posted April 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 (edited) From the ad it's ticking all the right boxes as far as I'm concerned, recent hull survey 2011, full replate, and I've seen a couple of pictures inside and out. thanks grace, will look Edited April 20, 2013 by Dar Kuma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsmelly Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 Hi I am in Sawley marina would you like me to look? Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dar Kuma Posted April 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 Well, I've just been pm'ed and told that it is a floating skip and should be treated as such. some details I have mentioned and I will mention another, the paint does look very good fer a floating skip plus the other details I have also mentioned including a survey in 2011 + full hull replate, allthough I don't know when the replate was done. It clearly has had some money spent on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dar Kuma Posted April 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 Oh I see, call me cynical but maybe you warn me off the boat and then put an offer in yerself eh? If that is indeed what is going on then you are a manipulative little shite, I'm actually looking fer somewhere to live here and if I don't find anywhere I am going to be homeless, so your actions to me currently are of someone very low and self centered just out to make a few quid and resell it. cheers.

Woodstock Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 Are you suggesting that someone who helped you has given you incorrect information and bought the boat that you were interested in- Not a great way to get future help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you actually know that this is what has happened? Personally I very much doubt it. If you think it may be the case then I for one would be extremely surprised. From your comments you do not seem to certain yourself so why on earth start name calling on a public forum? You asked for help and it would appear you got it and there was a second person willing to offer a second opinion too. I would imagine that following your comments any other forum member would think twice about offering help to you in this way in future. I do hope you do not end up homeless but in your anxiety to get fixed up please do not shoot yourself in the foot by saying unkind things about the very people who are trying to help you.

Just who exactly is that comment aimed at? I trust its not Tim (mr smelly) because if it is and he decides not to offer any more help you have just shot yourself in the foot in a big way.

I strongly suspect that you've got the wrong end of a stick here, - and suggest you have a most genuine apology to offer! Edited to add: - And I'm not the one requiring an apology!

matty40s Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 I thought you were after a floating skip for all your empty Champers bottles and pistachio shells G&F. They do take up a dreadful amount of room on ones boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
