Hi Jonger welcome the bug will now set in again! Regards John

Hi John We use Auto Aid (Equity insurance) £41 per year If you need them you pay for the breakdown and then claim it back seems to have good reviews and reputation on auto express etc. regards John

This is defiantly on our things to do list. An old customer used to rave about it so this subject has reminded me to get it done. Any recommendations most welcome. Regards John

Hi Griff do you mean 17th May. We saw the Yellow Sea king come over low at Horning on Sunday and thought someone must be in trouble. Not a good outcome at all. Regards John

Thanks for you help Guys will phone around tomorrow John B

Hi Alan I have tried him and he can only do weekends at the moment. John

Hi can anyone recommend a boat transport from the Thames to the broads 27ft boat. Regards John

Thats great news, all the best to all at the yard. Regards John B

Hi Dave that's a fair run to Burgundy. It sounds very nice though. Have you any photos ? Regards John

Hi Jason really sorry to hear that news it must have been a very hard decision. I was looking forward to bringing the new boat to you (which I still will do) once the survey etc is done for you to give your usual expert advise and friendly banter. I will miss the confidence that if anything goes wrong I have a reliable and trustworthy person / yard to rely on. But other things are more important and I wish you all the best and look forward to calling in a few weeks. Regards John B

Thanks Clive Sorry to hear about peter. I don't know how they managed so long on that boat especially in the depths of winter. John

That was the boat the old couple lived on for years. We were moored 6 boats down for a couple of years. It needed a hell of a lot of work doing to. What happened to the old couple? John

Good to hear no one was hurt Hope their insurance is up to date. John

Oh dear doesn't look good. Anybody know any news ? John

Another well wrote enjoyable read Paul & Mary. Hope you enjoy your new boat on the Broads & at Sea Regards John

Hi David we have just sold our Falcon Capriole 27 with a Volvo MD 22. (only 1200 hrs on the clock) Although we were a bit sceptical at first it turned out to be a great engine. 5 years approx 500 hours it never missed a beat and so economical. I cant even remember having to top up water/ oil between services (done by LBBY every year). It may be not quite as refined as the more modern engines but if its been looked after it wont let you down. Good luck with your boat hunting John

Please add my picture to the fold Morning reflection Sorry Peter another wind pump! John

Congratulations George & Laura A little girl a very special gift. All the best John & Doreen

Hi guys thanks for your welcoming replies. Our boat is now at a the brokers and I have spotted a nice replacement very early days yet. Doreen's priority bigger Galley mine a bigger engine! ( so that we can out pace Griff when the water cannons come out to play ) Hope you are fell better Jason and look forward to our next visit in Oct. Regards John

Thanks guys Hope your spending a lot of time on the boat Mike! Regards John
