  1. "Liberty - I assume your question mark referring to the hydrographic survey, relates to the fact that you doubt whether one was done at all??"

    No - just questioning whether it was the right word.

  2. "The key to navigating Great Yarmouth is to pass through at low slack water, then the current is low, clearance is the highest.

    Simples"

    I thought slack water was an hour(ish) after low tide and not lowest? If you need maximum clearance, this is at low, not slack water.

    I was told there is 17' from mud to bridge, anyone know,if this is correct?

  3. Ours is, I think, original so 40 years old.  The installation certainly looks un-fiddled with.  Decent sized compressor, air hose and twin trumpets.  Just have to blast the spiders out now and again.  Brilliant.

     

    Yes, Mr Hireboat, you are coming towards me on the wrong side of a narrow river on full ebb, and I will let you know!

  4. Thank you for the views.  The boat will be five minutes' walk (or two minutes' run with a cricket bat!) from home.  There's nothing of value on board; I just don't want some little ****** causing damage to find out there's nothing worth nicking.

  5. I was going to reply that I haven't been to a bank for years; however...

    The ladies at work go to the bank to pay in work cheques and cash, also to cash petty cash cheques.

    So where will local businesses pay their takings in? Granted, usually card payment but still a fair amount of cash flying about, particularly in rural parts. Bit of a hassle to bank but no credit card charges.
