      Hi Nick and Marianne- Yes we had some upload issues over last 14 days which are now resolved- also lots of boats being sold 😀 hope you are well. JB

      I agree with you Nick. I wouldn't habe ever watched this channel if not for you, and then he barely uploads now. So sad. At least I get regular uploads from another popular Yactuber.,,that's right..Marrianne. ah best in the biz really. She must have had a good teacher. Aw you know I'm kidding Nick, but I do like Marriannes reviews.

    I bought a Phantom 48 from James's family firm nine years ago, she was down in Poole when I acquired her, and she has been brilliant I have had such great adventures with her, she is now down in Mayflower Marina in Plymouth.

    The jacket is very trimming on you James. Not sure about Dan as I only have his reflection in the glass to go by. The socks? A little strange, maybe the addition of a dorsal fin and a splash of red. Like the T shirt with the shark bite out of the side I bought in Australia about 35 years ago. The mother banned me from wearing it in the house. She said it gave her the heebe jeebys!. 🦈😄

    Fantastic boat James but the average working bloke hasn't got a chance of owning and running these at approximately £1300 a week these boats are for company owners, ceo of a large company and lottery winners. The running costs are more than most people earn in a week. Still, I'll keep hopeful that my 6 numbers come up
