  2. WoW Just added this to my bucket list, great for Oulton broad just dive straight in to the mud
  3. Lets rejuvinate old navel practices keelhaul : to drag (a person) by a rope from one side of a vessel to the other through the water under the keel too good for them But love the good practise of dropping the Mud weight just in case living and learning
  4. 1st cruise 2012 southern region, docked at the waveney river centre, picked up some fuel, had just the one in the warm pub looked the part ( life jackets on) sounds just like your trip
  5. Hi all Anyone read James wentworth Day "COASTAL ADVENTURE". its a journey around the broads region he took in winter around 1946. I have all the intentions to revisit the places, and most of you probably already do. It would make a great TV series rather like Portillo's railway journey.

  8. Sorry for the late reply but D and I have been away for our wedding annie. She safety wrapped at Somerlayton. Brian and Mark have been more than helpful and have my thanks for their support and friendly advice. Did gather what the salty bottoms were all about and appricate the future offer. All new and some steep learning curves ahead. PHand D
  9. Thanks A9 as you say when we get used to her, and with some big brothers looking after us. the collection was a peach, we motored down from brundell only to have a huge Dog otter come up in front of the boat and swim over to the bank and fish along the edge, our first shighting, amazing as we have been caneoing to look for them for two summers. Had a call today, shes out of the water and needs wrapping up, although we have a few little jobs to do. PH
  10. hi to everyone and thanks for the advice on the footwear, D can put them on my every increasing christmas list. Ok so we are going to be broke! we get the picture , but Hi what about all the good times, the sunsets, the new friends, the wildlife, the great norfolk broads. as we were both born here, they have been a part of life off and on. Trapped them for the ministry ( coypu), caneo them ( now up for sale) sail on them with OB supporters, fished them, shoot over them, finally boating on them, how lucky are we! we are the pride owners of a Four winns 258 and she will be tucked up for winter very soon.
  11. Hi all Thanks for the welcome and the inpending doom of poverty. As regulars you need to advise us on..... "just about everything" So firstly, as one that only users a computer for work, how much detail do we put here? sorry to be cautious, its an age thing! Question 2 of 1,000,000 Whats the best foot wear to stop me marking the GRP deck ( going by your predictions) they better be cheap! 2 at a time, as I dont want to tax you all!
  12. HI TO EVERYONE spent the kids inheritance and are now cautious owners of our first boat. Shes about to go under wraps for winter. Hope to meet you all next summer PHandD
