Hi
Watched all three of going under Ale Bridge yesterday
Modern day Trixie flanked either side by BA and Malanka
A good sight and would have made a good picture unfortunately did not have camera to hand

We hired Sunlit Horizon as recent as 2016
I seem to remember that Robin had her prior to that and is the subject of one set of his blogs with the usual boat review

Hi Simon
looks like we are being able to negotiate a resionable reduction in price.
we will know next week if our reduced offer has been accepted but the signs are looking good.
If all goes to plan we may we’ll be challenging Robin for to quickest purchase.
Just over two weeks for first view to purchase including having survey and getting report.
Will let you know soon

Many thanks all for your comments etc.
it certainly makes us feel better than no one seems to believe that whilst a problem not one that means the deal cannot be done.
Must say that we are not great believers of the world of on line “social media” and we are not on any of the Facebook, Twitter or forums in general.
It even took soomtime of looking before joining here, but we have found it to be both friendly and extremely knowledgeable in answering what must seem to many of you stupid questions.
So a very big thank you to you all and we will let you know in due course the outcome of our journey to become a “Boater on the Norfolk Broads”

Hi all
a survey on a 2002 built boat has shown that the boat has been well looked with no major problems just cosmetic small items to put right.
it has also found that the hull has signs of osmosis. According to the surveyor the blisters are small (5 to 10mm) but are all over the underside of the hull.
The surveyor seems to be to be saying that whilst the problem will never improve it may take years before it gets any worse and independently the broker has made same comments, although I suppose the broker would.
The general feeling being that this is not as much of a problem as has been feared in the past and whilst if it did get to the stage of needing repair this could be very expense but this could be years in the future and perhaps some reduction in price to cover some eventual costs would be the way to go.
The question now is if an agreeable discount can be obtained should the purchase go ahead?
Would welcome you views

Thanks Robin
I thought you would know the answer to this one
Many thanks

Hi All
Having been looking a solar panel's and would welcome your views.
Have found the following online which look as though they would be suitable for most occasions.
What do you all think - Is it worth the cost to install?
Many thanks in advance for your thoughts and sorry for all these stupid questions
John

Many thanks for that Steve
Looks like 15 kilo then that is so long as purchase goes through.
Due for survey next week - fingers crossed
Thanks
John

Hi all
We are looking at a Shetland 27 that has no mud weight at present.
What weight would you recommend for use on the broads with such a boat
I believe the boat weight is just under 3 tonnes if that helps
Many thanks
John

Great write up Griff
Looking forward to the next installment
Scaniaman - I think you will find that your shares have dropped now Indy crew are all home
Thanks again Griff

Hi Robin
Can only repeat all that has been said. Great adventure captured expertly in your blog - Well done and now enjoy your boat in her new home.
Would be good to get Griff's view on the final leg from Dover to Gt Yarmouth to complete to story if he has the time.
All the best

If that did happen at least we would still have good blog video of the action.
also we would be able to hear Robin with the new mic

Hi Robin
Great video as usual.
It looks as though when Shelia is with you she can take over the video control for the blogs
, also the new mic seems to kill a lot of the wind noise.
Looking forward to the next part which I assume was a lot more challenging.
These certainly while away a snowy, cold day - more please
All the best

I can only echo what many have already said
Well done to Robin, Griff and the rest of crew Indy
Just got tomorrow to see the final voyage and then can get back to doing some work, seems that my PC & Ipad have been continually on Marine Traffic since last Friday
Once again well done to a fabulous job by all of Crew Indy, but what can I watch next weekend???
John

It seems a long 5 mins waiting for the bridge
-
This must be one of the most followed voyages it is surprising that we have not crashed the marine traffic web site with all that are following Indy & her crew.
Have a safe final leg to her new home port
John
ps great photos

Hi Ricardo

You can rest assured that a survey would be arranged before we brought any boat.
