it's better to travel than arrive

I am absolutely delighted and I look forward to continuing living my dream and equally a relationship with the Braidbar team that I’m, sure will continue for years to come.

One relatively unique feature was the installation of the EmpirBus electrical management system configured via my laptop. Whilst I could consider this a bit of an extravagance, it was worthwhile being able to configure any electrical component in any which way I desired. For example, if I wish to arm the alarm system, I can configure the system to shut off all the lights and leave the headlight on for 30 seconds whilst we exit the boat ; or have the boat text my mobile phone when I am away if the bilge pump activates. I particularly like the idea of sending a mobile text to the boat to switch the central heating on an hour before I arrive so that it is warm when I enter the boat

Having committed to building the boat in February with a fit-out slot planned for early September (following the arrival of a classic Tim Tyler shell) I was desperate to spend the Christmas and New Year period on the boat with the family including my sister, brother in law and nephew Ross ; the race was on to have the boat completed on time ; we were spending new years eve and the maiden voyage on “Sir James” – named after my son James (Who still unfortunately wishes I had bought a speed boat !)
