Owned by me yay! Just bought the greatest thing that ever was and will be, 8 meters of floating goodness. Tommorow I'll be cruising the channels of amsterdam in style ~:)

8 meters long, 3 meters wide, 40 pk engine, kitchen + fridge, 4 sleeping places and a very happy owner ~:cheers:
Getting ready for global warming eh Frag?
Any sails or is she motor only?

If you choose to prepare for the apocalyse, attach a few ballistic ceramic plates, anti-floating boom acetylene torches and twin .50s on your ship.
Nice one Fragony - are you going to rent it out?
And do people from the org get discounts? ;)
Nice one Fragony
Look people, this is what I wanted to hear damnit. Praise me.
And do people from the org get discounts? ;)
Come to the dam and tag along, I never need a reason to go cruising, yo ~;)
Two popular sayings here in the US come to mind:
1. A boat is just a hole in the water in which you throw money.
2. The two happiest days of a man's life are the day he buys a boat, and the day he sells it.
Anyway, congratulations! Looks nice. ~:cheers:
:captain: Nice boat Frag.
So, does she have a name?
Nice boat Frag.
Good boy.
So, does she have a name?
Yes, 'de eerste' Translation: 'the first'. Call me confident ~D
Congratulations! That's awesome!
I have no idea what a 'pk' is, and I doubt it's related to kilojoules.Quote:
40 pk
What is this in horsepower terms?
Anyway, have fun!

Well.........in horsepowers it would be around....... 40! I thought pk was a universal term my bad. pk stands for 'paardekracht', which translates directly into 'horsepower'Quote:

You are the envy of all us land animals. :bow:
If I ever drop by the Amsterdam area I'll take you up on that offer, or I think that's what it was. ~;)
Very nice, congratulations ~:cheers: . When we visit we expect a complete
tour of the area ~;) ..... and Heinekans (sp).
Awesome, I love the design. Its timeless, not like some of the stuff out there today. Good buy Frag, congrats. ~:)
Nice, I <3 boats (yes I heart boats!)
When I first saw the title I thought you meant owned like...

(Well, this IS the backroom)
A nice ride, have fun with it. Don't depth charge any subs either.
Very nice boat.
My cousin repairs them in NZ...
His 7.3m one has 244HP (horsepower) but it is made for long range fishing and isn't made for cruising and living in like that one is.
Right. That is what the sailing community in The Neds call a 'flatiron'. I bet she runs on Heineken. Did your Mum knit those curtains herself, Fragony?Quote:

But sooner or later I am going to get serious about reinvesting my mortgage in 25 feet of Cornish Crabber or something. That is one of the best yachts ever built. Maybe I'll pass you by on my way out to sea... Alright, alright, no more jealous talk. Good luck Fragony, and may she stay afloat till the next bar!
