heloa all. should that be ail. ai've, sorry i've been continuously scanning these forums to see whether i could find anything 'not so good' about ai'sing. well i couldn't and so have put down a deposit on a papaya yellow adventure island. ive gained a lot of respect for hobie and there policys, besides the workmanship, upgrades and improvements. so yes, im having do do more hours myself now to afford the craft, then will opt to pay someone when conditions are good.
strange, on having seen my first adventure in the flesh, i too opted to live my life by the following motto. ADVENTURE BEFORE DIMENTIA. today i fell off a skateboard. i'll soon be sailing alone for the first time. roll on summer.
thanks guys, and gals, for your input on these forums. it certainly has me aimed in the right direction.

Howzit Gary,
Congratulations and welcome to the fun ! Had my AI for just over 1 year and am still loving it. I'm sure that you will too. Only, stay off the skateboard! Water landings are a lot softer...
Good luck.
Leonard

Hi Gary & BeeFus - welcome aboard!
Nice part of the world you live in Gary. If I recall correctly, Newquay is a Cornish surfing beach with sand :shock: :P :!: :wink:
I reckon there would be plenty of places to have adventures with your AI there - so have fun and look forward to hearing about them down the track :wink:
