Thanks, Gracie! Please can you explain how you and other members have such lovely little emojis, that move and I wasn't even allowed a smiley face? I think drinking the occasional glass of something tasty goes well with boating, helps calm the nerves! Yo, Ho Ho and a barrel of rum and all that!

Hi Alan, we haven't actually bought the weight yet, but reading stuff, the recommended weight seems to be 18 kg. The boat is 20 ft long. Does that sound about right to you? We can't find anywhere the length the rope should be!

Thanks, Charlie! please does anyone know how long a rope we need for the mud weight? Sorry to ask a rather dumb question, but everything is new to us, haven't got much of a clue what we're doing yet, but very grateful for any tips and advice!

Hello, everyone! Thanks for the welcome! You got it in one, Polly! little shack and boat are on the Thurne. My hubby retired, so we spent his pension pot! Best thing we've ever done! Not there permanently...well, you're not supposed to, are you? Try to go whenever possible though! So far, everyone we have met has been really friendly and helpful. Just been told off for including an Emoji...Sorry, it wasn't rude, just a little smiley face!

just popping in to say 'Hi'. Recently bought an old shack and an old boat, but they're new to me and having great fun!
