I belong to a brilliant club that has winches for launching, tractors for towing around the compound, full workshop facilities, engine hoist's etc aswell as a clubhouse with cheap beer! Very reasonable too, once you've joined & paid your social membership to the club the boat space including all facilities cost about £140 a year for our Raider 18. I'd stick to going to sea with another person at the start preferrably an experienced someone. A Warrior 150 would be easily launched and would fish two quite happily but if you plan to head further afield later on I'd look at the 165 or 175. If you want a dry ride look at the Raiders. If you do plan to keep it on the drive & your restricted for space then have a look at the 'Samurai' by sea hog, 1ft longer than the warrior 150 but better on price & a nice solid build. A mate has one & he still pushes out 30+ miles just on the better weather days. Good Luck, keep us informed on how your getting on. |
