A while ago, was it?

Great shot!     That is one of the best maintained and tidiest marina that I've ever see, and I've seen a lot of marinas over the years.

Yes,  that was many years ago.

Yes,  that was the same spot just not from above.

IIRC the fees there certainly reflected that.

A marina that well kept could demand some high fees for sure.

They charge about £5000 a year for a birth on an 11m boat.  Plus there are lots of extra on top of that like power etc.

Yeah, that is a bit on the high side.  I stayed at a marina in Aruba that was quite expensive one time.  The charge for water and electricity was higher than the dock fees.  Trash haul off was an additional charge.  Need fuel, no problem they just added a surcharge onto the price of fuel.

Thats the same in the marina,   although I love how that bow sprits dont count when its about mooring fees but very much count as bragging rights at the bar.  

Nice picture and yes everything in its place

Nice job.

Which one did you get?

Montfrooij Posted at 2-26 01:02

I think it was the BDRC one.    Edit not that was the OP3 filter,  the Mini3 one is Frewell.

Montfrooij Posted at 2-26 01:02

No today. we have 40mph winds.  

DAFlys Posted at 2-26 01:18

I'm going for the Freewell too.

Also rain like we have?

I one it on eBay for £7 so I was quite happy,   the Mavic 3 I was bidding on yesterday ended up at over £600 for a drone body only which was a bit more than I would pay.

The rain stopped in the early hours,  I had planned to be painting outside but thats gone out the window now.

My paint jobs are postponed due to other priorities. And the bad weather makes me feel less bad about that.

Oh wow, are you considering one?

This was a tiny paint job but it will take me many house to get right,   I have a small stone chip to deal with.

when I saw it listed it hade about 1 day to go and no bids and it looked a bit suspicious so I thought Id have a punt on it,  I would be limited where I could fly it but for the right money it would be good to use with the DJI RC

Yeah, it looks interesting for sure. Especially for that price.

Not really,   I use an airbrush to spray into the "hole" and build up the layers with heat in-between and then when I get the level just right I can spray in some clear coat and polish it back,    problem is Im not that good at it so I usually take a few goes to get it right.

They just released a non dome version but I dont see that being as useful for my needs.

Not at all.
An umbrella would be better. (although that would limit your angles too).
Or maybe some cleverly printed 'hood'.

The other option Im considering is a bell jar.

I was being sarcastic. This does not sound like fun.

I had to look that up.
But yes, that seems to be able to do the trick.

Yes and frustratingly I wasnt even driving the car to get this chip,  it was parked and it must have got kicked up out of the road.
