I have just joined the club and am looking forward to joining in or helping wherever possible. I keep my boat at Cobbs Quay and have been a keen fisherman for quite a few years. I am 51 and an electronics engineer by trade.

My boat is a Pirate 21 called Euphoria.

Hi Steve,

Welcome!

 

Nice boat! I think we have one or two Pirates in 'The Club'. What setup do you have engine wise? What type of boat angling do you like to do?

 

I have the older Souter Mi 21, principally the same boat, with inboard Tdiesel 130hp to a 290dpe leg in my case. I operate from Xchurch just up from the bandstand on the Stour. I keep a look out for you.

Welcome Steve.

 

I have often admired Euphoria, specially as I am currently moored next berth out.

 

Your boat looks to be full charter cert, but I especially love your wheelhouse radar tower.

Thanks to everyone for welcoming me! and for the comments about the boat. I have owned her now for 2 years and am very pleased with the sea keeping and build quality. I have the Honda 225hp fitted, which is great, but I wish I had gone for the 2 x 90hp option.

 

As for the fishing...well I have to say I enjoy fishing for all species. I have made a few longer trips out to the Pinnacle and beyond and have caught some nice Tope out there. I have also had a couple of Cod this year uptiding.

 

Generally I prefer to fish with lighter tackle wherever possible.

 

Peteg, I don't think we met up in 2009, I hope you are well and to see you soon.

 

Conger King (Tony), 'what the boat is really used for'.......! Well everyone, I run a fireworks business and the boat is officially a safety boat for when we are firing shows on or near water. The boat is fully coded CAT3 (20 miles C.O.P) because it is a safety boat, that's why there are quite few bits and bobs on her.

 

If it works, I have attached a jpeg of my mate Richard who caught a decent Cod 3 mikles off Handfast Point the other week. He would like to join the club as well.

 

 

 

 

 

All the best

 

Steve

Welcome Steve,

I,m sure you will enjoy the help and the banter within the club and as a fellow Pirate 21 owner, engined the same as mine there are not many marks in the Channel that you will not be able to fish.( Weather permitting) and what's more you'll get there in half the time. wink.gif
