Very poor skipper with no ability to find a wreck plus many other problems.

I have used the faithful a number of times, Mull and Plymouth, My club used it for a trip to the Scillies and another to Raithlin.
No problems with the boat, I had no problems with Mick or Jenny(who does a cracking roast dinner, the food is beyond criticism). Mick knew his way around the sound, having learnt the hard way( he nearly sank it), one YD`er was on board at the time, I heard the Pan pan go out.
Plymouth was a little less convincing however.
We ended up broadside across the harbour lock and nearly crushed another boat........
The club trip to the scillies had an unpleasent incident where somebody who went along to make the numbers up(ie not our club) made some off hand comment to Jenny which resulted in people being put a shore mid-trip........
We have not used the Faithful since.
If Mick takes a dislike to someone, they know about it.
My experiences however have all been positive.
If you think the White Horse rolled you should try this one though.

Nice boat, accom fine, food great, I like Mick but then again I work with engineers all day. Calls a spade a spade. Jenny lovely and a magician in the galley. Plymouth knowledge sketchy when we used him 2 yrs ago (his first charter) but hopefully better now. Boat rolls but takes the sea very well (we were in a gale force 8 with him. eek).
