AVON 4M ORKNEY SEARIDER 592

T

here are few such icons in the boating world as the baby Avon. The 4m Searider is credited with being the first commercially produced RIB, originally built with a wooden hull, then in 1972 the hull became fibreglass and in that form the boat has been built ever since and is still a popular model from the Avon line-up. How many other models of boat can boast an uninterrupted production run of 45 years?

From the early days the 4m Searider was made with side by side forward seats with a windscreen and a covered foredeck, just like a small sports boat. As

www.boatmart.co.uk

RIBs evolved jockey seats became the norm and the little Avon sported an open deck with a console and double jockey seat. The loose fuel tank, previously lashed in place in the stern, was brought forward into the console, but essentially the boat remained the same. The forward space under the soft foredeck was useful as a protected area to put picnic bags and other loose, lightweight gear. The open foredeck of the modern boat doesn’t have this protection, or the windscreen, yet the console seating arrangement is probably just as heavy and it does provide stowage within the seat base for things narrow enough to be squeezed into the opening under the saddles.

The original boat created an aura around her as being a little boat with huge sea-keeping abilities. The stories of rough water passages could fill a book, such as the circumnavigation of Scotland in an Avon 4m Searider by Michael Alexander and Richard Frere in 1989. This one voyage changed the way people thought about boats forever and the fascination with RIBs began; people could now see the possibilities these boats opened up.

The 4m Avon was originally conceived with a 50hp, two-stroke Mercury as its power plant. In modern times two-stroke has given way to four-stroke motors, which are heavier and do not pick up so

Q&A

WHAT TO WEAR There have never been so many choices about what to wear afloat. Pretty pastels, cool classics or high tech sportswear, Angela Clay answers your questions and looks at marine wear to suit your style as well as your purse.

Q

Our two weeks summer holiday on the Broads is the only time that we set foot on a boat, do we really need to fork out for special clothing?

John, Somerset You probably already have some suitable things in the wardrobe such as T-shirts, sweaters, cotton trousers and, most importantly, for both children and grown-ups, a hat to keep the sun off your neck. Be aware that the weather can change quite suddenly and what started as a pleasant afternoon can turn cold and wet, so always have a sweater and a light waterproof to hand. Why not invest £50 in the new Gill inshore sport vest, which is light, rolls up into a small space and has a zipped internal pocket for your wallet or mobile and an exit point for headphones. You should wear well fitting flat shoes that won’t slip and, it should go without saying, a lifejacket is a must for each person on board. If you are hiring a cruiser these should be supplied, but for boat owners there are many light, comfortable styles that are not bulky and don’t cost the earth.

Children will love the vivid yellow Seapro Kids Foam lifejacket, costing £21.99, from Marine Warehouse, which comes with a signal whistle and the essential crotch strap and reflective stripes. Seapro also make a lightweight 720g adult lifejacket that is recommended for both inland and coastal waters and costs just £34.99. The RNLI lifejacket slogan can’t be repeated too often, so please remember it, ‘useless unless worn!’.

I am looking forward to my first sailing holiday in the Med and wondered whether I need special sunglasses to cope with the sun and sea or will any do?

David, Gloucestershire

Q

A

Sunlight reflecting off water is particularly dazzling and can cause damage from harmful UV rays. Polarised lenses are engineered to reduce reflection and glare in strong light, keeping your eyes safe and comfortable.

Children’s eyes are especially sensitive so do make sure that they are protected. I like the online Sunglasses Shop for their huge range of designer styles for adults and children. There is a wide range of prices too, from £5.99 for a pair of children’s red sunglasses and £15.99 for SXUC Drivers, black or tortoiseshell, to £158 for the very cool Maui Jim Sandbar Gold. In case you drop them overboard, it’s worth investing £4.99 for a floating sunglasses strap.

I am a busy mum with a full time job and little time for shopping; where can I find a good range of children’s sailing clothes online?

Q

You can shop from home at the online Sailing Clothing Store, although they do have retail outlets at Cowes on the Isle of Wight. You will find a good and sensibly priced range of junior sailing wear including rash vests, high fit trousers, dinghy tops and buoyancy aids from Musto, Gill and Henri Lloyd.

WHAT TO WEAR Q&A People talk about the importance of the right footwear for boating but won’t most flat shoes do?

Julie, West Glamorgan

Q

1 2

Slips and trips are a potential hazard of boating, particularly if you have unsuitable footwear, and owners certainly won’t thank you for damaging an expensive deck with heavy shoes or leaving black marks. Footwear should be well fitting (not flip-flops) with a light coloured, slip resistant sole, and if shoes also look good enough to wear ashore then you are on to a winner. Chatham Marine offers an excellent range of deck shoes for men and women with prices starting at £59. The shoes come in attractive colours and are beautifully made in soft nubuck/leather with a high grade rubber sole designed to increase your grip and stability, especially in wet conditions. Specialist footwear for sailing can cost as little as £19.99 for Gill Aquatech shoes and £22.99 for their short cruising boots in natural rubber, both from Marine Scene UK.

Q

Days out are often ruined because bugs seem to make a beeline for me; is covering up the only answer?

Phillip, Banbury I am delighted to report the launch of Chatham’s new Aloe Vera range of clothing that will not only repel insects but soothe those sunburnt shoulders as well. The collection includes the Cadiz, a long sleeved T-shirt for summer with a flattering boat neck and stripes, and the Sacha, a sleeveless polo.

Both of these tops have moisturising properties and come in a variety of colours with sizes 10 - 20 and an affordable price of £39.

A

Can you recommend some quick drying clothing?

Johnathan, Essex We have come a long way from the soggy cottons that took forever to dry, even in summer, and Gill’s Technical apparel collection is designed to be not only fast drying but to give UV sun protection as well. The

range includes T-shirts, shorts, trousers, vests and jackets. Gill’s new Micro Knit Fleeces for men and women are made from a knitted polyester that is warm and comfortable and, most importantly, quick drying. The fleeces can be worn as either a casual sweater or as a technical midlayer beneath a waterproof or a smock.

COMBI PLOTTERS & FISHFINDERS Here are two great new bits of electronics kit from Standard Horizon - the CPF180i and CPF300i combined chartplotters and fishfinders. The 5” CPF180i has a built-in EGNOS/WAAS/MSAS compatible 50-channel receiver with pin-point accuracy to within 3m and LCD screen that can be viewed even in direct sunlight. The new Dual Chart Window

feature displays two independent chart scales side by side. Another new feature is the ability to create and navigate an Olympic Route, a route with the same starting and ending point, rather than having to start a route at your vessel’s current position.

For even greater functionality, the CPF180i has one NMEA input and two outputs, which

allow it to be connected to a wide range of NMEA devices. It is AIS enabled (when connected to a compatible AIS engine). When connected to a Standard Horizon VHF DSC radio, it can also be used for DSC polling.

The CPF180i costs £499.95 and the widescreen CPF300i £829.95.

Web: www.standardhorizon.co.uk

SMALL IN SIZE, BIG ON FEATURES Standard Horizon’s GX1100E is one of the smallest fixed VHF DSC radios around and is the first fixed DSC they’ve produced on which ATIS (Automatic Terminal Information Service) can be fully programmed and switched on and off via the front panel. ATIS is an identification system used on inland waterways in many areas of mainland Europe.

On the DSC side, when the set is connected to a GPS receiver via an NMEA cable, your current position is clearly shown on the bright LCD screen. The set can then be programmed to poll for the positions of up to 48 other DSC-equipped vessels and can automatically (or manually) volunteer your own position when asked. Your position is also automatically transmitted when the distress button is used and can 62 I Summer 2009 I Boat Mart

be entered manually if a GPS is not connected.

Standard Horizon has also taken this function one step further by allowing the positions of the polled vessels to be displayed on any Standard Horizon plotter connected to the GX1100E. The Standard Horizon GX1100E retails at just £119.95. www.standardhorizon.co.uk

DRESS FOR SUMMER We’ve a couple of new pieces of clothing for you from Boat Mart regulars, Gill. First up, and ideal for summer, is the InshoreSport Vest, which is similar to the Inshore Sport Jacket but with the styling of a body warmer.

It has a drop tail design at the back to stop it riding up, a mesh lining to keep you cool and a zippered internal pocket for a wallet, phone or iPod. Gill has even added a separate exit point for headphones. The Inshore-Sport Vest is available in Charcoal or Silver Grey in sizes XS - XXL for £50.

Gill has also launched a new women’s version of their popular Coast-Sport Jacket, as well as a new colour for the men. The jacket is not only comfortable to wear, but the pockets are lined with micro-fleece to provide a warm refuge for cold hands and a fully waterproof lightweight hood stows neatly under the fleece-lined collar.

The new Women’s Coast-Sport Jacket is available in sky blue and graphite, while graphite is the new additional colour choice for men. The jackets cost £135.

COMPLETE HAND PROTECTION Although fantastic fun there’s no denying that boating can be a little harsh on your hands at times, so here’s a new hand care range, called Hands First, to help protect, cleanse and condition your hands.

Hands First Dry Feel Barrier Cream is applied before and after you head out and creates an invisible pair of gloves to protect against dirt, grit and harsh weather, while First Power Scrub+ & Moisturiser is a dual-action formula containing natural pumice, walnut shell and blue cypress oil for deep cleansing and effective conditioning. Dry Feel Barrier Cream (125ml) and Power Scrub+ & Moisturiser (225ml) are priced at £7.99 and £5.99 respectively and are available online from www.handsfirst.co.uk, independent pharmacies, John Bell & Croyden and www.pharmacy2u.co.uk.

Although CORGI has long been the official authority for registered gas installers the contract to oversee the new Gas Safe Register has been awarded to Capita.

The register will provide enhanced levels of service and clearly written rules of registration.

There will also be new services and benefits designed to improve the existing registration scheme and to promote gas safety.

LESS IS MORE £ £

The Canal du Mdi is super but is silting up

So, do you really need to spend a fortune to enjoy boating? David Greenwood has been finding out.

I

f your idea of fun is the latest biggest boat you can find, bristling with the latest electronic gear, moored in the most expensive location, then it would be fair to say that boating is a very expensive hobby. For some people, though, there is little correlation between spending and enjoyment - in fact some would argue that the more you spend on your boat, the less you enjoy her. Are we talking here about the grumpy old men and women of the boating world - people who would resent any kind of expenditure no matter what, or is there some wisdom that we all could learn from - especially at this time of economic uncertainty?

Boat Mart set itself the challenge of finding out if ‘less’ (expenditure) could actually generate ‘more’ (enjoyment). Here’s what we discovered chatting with boat owners in two locations less than an hour from London.

BRAND NEW Paul bought his boat brand new at a boat show. He got a good discount, but agreed to pay in Euros and lost a significant amount when Sterling took a dive before the final payment. The boat was a new design and by the time she was delivered the boating press had crawled all over her and their verdict was not good. Still, he determined to make the best 88 I Summer 2009 I Boat Mart

You should be planning your passage on paper anyway – electronics are convenient but not essential

of it - adding a significant amount of electronic equipment and generally bringing her up to be state-of-the-art.

She’s moored in a five star marina and he spends most Friday nights aboard her. Not that he particularly wants to - it’s just that Friday night is when the French arrive bashing into moored boats and often each other as they struggle to find a mooring spot in an unfamiliar marina. Paul is there fender in hand to look after his pristine white topsides that cost him so much. The more you spend, the more anxious you are about your investment.

Please mention Boat Mart when replying to advertisements

The same concern for maintaining a polished gelcoat ensures that his voyages are limited to one or two other five star marinas; he’d never consider risking his investment at the end of an anchor. A quiet weekend feeling his way up the estuary to some romantic secluded drying anchorage would be just too stressful.

Weekends when he can’t get away seem to be spent polishing, although rumour has it that he polishes her in foreign marinas too. Paul often talks about selling her but, after the press reviews, he knows that what he’s got isn’t a floating asset - he’s got ‘negative equity’.

www.boatmart.co.uk

LESS IS MORE

SECOND HAND Steve, by contrast, spent a long time listing the qualities he wanted from a boat and researching different designs through the yachting press. He settled for a smaller second hand cruiser, of a tried and tested design, at a price he could afford and he knows he’d recoup his money if he decided to sell.

His major additional investments were prioritised around essential safety gear and ‘comfort’. He also signed up for a number of RYA theoretical and practical courses and used his own boat to rehearse what he was learning about navigation, anchoring, boat handling and seamanship. His budget was limited and so careful thought went into each purchase.

Good paper charts took precedence over electronic chartplotters. Freebie booklets of tide tables mean that he can avoid the expense of tide-predicting software, and a transistor radio, backed up by VHF, gives him all the weather news he needs.

Half tide moorings cost less than a tenth of five star marina fees, and although he can’t connect to shore power, he still has some battery powered electric lighting backed up by oil lamps. He is rarely disturbed by other craft. It takes local knowledge to get near him.

Is he happy with his more Spartan approach to boating? You bet! He’s running a boat he can easily afford and he’s really using his skill as a seaman and navigator. Repairs and maintenance are based on careful research followed by DIY and each time he successfully

completes a job, his confidence grows.

“She’s not the fastest boat in the world,” he admits, “but I bought a boat to spend some time at sea so lack of speed isn’t a problem, and anyway, the longer I spend at sea, the less money I can spend.”

TWO EXTREMES Okay, what we have here are probably two extreme approaches to boat ownership, but there are some lessons here for all of us.

Maybe we should all resolve to increase our time on the water; it’s only in harbour where you have to spend money. Maybe we should also spend a bit more time thinking about what we really need to achieve from our boating ambitions and a bit less time buying expensive gear that allows us to cut corners on skill and seamanship but which add nothing to our sense of achievement.

Paul can jump aboard his boat, flick two switches, press two buttons and be ready to sail to Guernsey within five minutes, the route flashing on the computer screen in front of him.

Steve would need to check tides and plot his course on paper charts a few hours before.

For Steve, that is part of the fun, an essential contributor to the sense of achievement gained from a voyage under his own steam.

The truth is that for all his electronics Paul should be making his plans on paper like Steve, just in case the electronics go down. I know he doesn’t and I sometimes wonder what would happen if he lost his GPS connection half way

across. Would he know where he was and how to complete the trip? Probably not - no wonder he’s anxious.

So, to the essential messages for a spot of less is more boating: ■ no electronic gear is essential except VHF (and maybe a handheld backup) ■ an echo sounder is probably the first ‘luxury item’ you should purchase although a lead line will do the job if you have willing crew ■ everyone needs traditional paper charts, plotters, pencils and logbook, just in case, so why not save money and use them ■ boating is about stepping away from the heard and celebrating your freedom - you get more of this and save money away from the marina ■ there is no substitute for seamanship the better you are the less you need to rely on electronics or other people ■ the more time at sea, the greater your enjoyment and the less you’ll spend ■ less expenditure can mean less anxiety about your investment - you’ll probably have to devote more time to her maintenance and to developing your DIY and seamanship skills – but isn’t that what boating is all about? � If you have tips and hints for keeping boating costs down - why not write to Boat Mart and share your ideas with other readers?

Half tide moorings outside of the marina are cheaper and often in prettier locations
