    Just the perfect series of fun on the sea with SB2! During the worst year in most of our living memories, you have bought rays of sunshine and fun into our screens and made things that little bit more bearable!!! Thank you! Looking forward to more tours and more fun over the coming weeks and years. If you want a change of pace when things improve, you’re welcome to fly with me in my PA 28 Arrow at 125kts around North London, Herts, Northants and across to Southend or down to the Isle of Wight.

      Yes Nick! A famous boat guy like you deserve a bigger boat. Your CZcams channel has grown considerable, I have no idea what kind of money this might generate, but is there any possibility/plans for a Smuggler's Blues 3? Surely one of the boat makers are willing to give you a generous discount, the way you would show it off here in front of 200k subscribers.

    I've seen the video where they show the boat you're talking about.
    the newly built Spirit P 70
    it's impressive, but also a bit old-fashioned in appearance.
    but hey, we all have different tastes. but nice, it certainly is.

    Long time watcher, first time poster. Your videos bring back so many great memories of when my dad took me out to boat on freshwater dams with his friends. Obviously the boat was a lot smaller with a single outboard (I believe it was either a 40hp or 60hp mariner, was 30 years ago!). I remember we had to wash the boat after every outing, service the motor, mix the gasoline and oil etc etc. It was amazing. Thank you for all that you do. Also a small suggestion for future boat tours. Invest in a small drone and do some beauty shots (if the marina allows these things, i wouldnt know), it would add a value most certainly!
