Leaving a 15 foot gap between boats being one of them!

Live a board?

I think the OP might stand a good chance as I think the gauge is a bit pessimistic and a big advantage of this boat is the narrower beam. I think it would be well worth checking with the pilot. The mobile number should be in the Skippers manual. Mrs Nog has the number on her phone but she is in the land of nod ATM.

You might be in with a chance, give the pilot a bell, they'll soon tell you. Could be quiet up there if not much is getting through.

Glad you're enjoying it and supporting the local pubs too!! Always good to have life jackets on too particularly in this weather when surfaces can be wet and slippery. Please continue to let us know how it's going if you can!

Look out Helen!!!

Know exacly where you're coming from H. It does seem a bit random but we must not get political must we I'm sure you'll have a great time.

I think some do but maybe have to be PAT tested? Local charity maybe?

Look forward to it H Don't think you'll have any problems in sunny MK, things not looking too good in Hovis and flat hat land though

Ditto, thanks for the info. I wonder what the air draught is? The thing that worries me about these sedan styles is getting under the bridges particularly in winter. Somerleyton for example can be quite tight. I've got so used to Alphacrafts that will pretty much go under most things at any time.

Nigel Royall used to build replicas, maybe still does. He used to produce a very interesting blog, certainly knows his stuff.

Thanks for the clarification folks. I did honestly think guns were a no no. Mind you Carol, Nigel Royall and others have published some fascinating information about gun punts, fowling and a guy called Scientific Fuller who inhabited Rockland Broad in days of old and shot everything in sight.

Probably stating the obvious - great sympathy to all affected of course but it is for the best for all of us in the end

I didnt think shooting was allowed on the Broads??? https://www.edp24.co.uk/news/health/new-inn-rockland-boat-capsize-rescue-1-6897782

I do get a sense that speeding offences, particularly serious ones, tend to be later in the day, rather than say in the mornings.

That's very interesting. I wonder if Brian Eno stumped up the cash for the initial purchase?? Just trying to think what I would spend on beer in 6 months Then add Mrs Nog's gin bill..........

Interesting thread, just catching up with it. Re the rangers - I've been hiring in winter for the past 14 years, usually in December and February. I can't recall seeing a ranger although I suppose there might be some about. We've crossed Breydon every December and most years in February. We've also moored at Reedham numerous times. The quay is pretty much empty in winter which does make life easier I must admit. Might not be so good for novices though. I wonder what the rangers do in winter?

Telepathy?

Sounds quite feasible if they have all that cooking to do! I'm sure it will be right. I don't know how much batteries cost but you must be looking at a grand I would have thought. Why go to all that trouble? Baffling (but then I am a simple soul)

A very fine beer. Mind you with a name like that it would have to be wouldn't it? I also drank it at the Caxton Club where it was on much better form I should add.

14 batteries. Good grief. No wonder they don't want to replace them. The title of this thread says it all I think!
