    It’s not difficult to understand tragic though things like this are. She was not crushed by the weight of the boat she was crushed by the effective force of whatever surface area of boat hull being pushed by THOUSANDS of tons of water. 

    In extreme cases such pressure will flip the boat and crush anything between the boat and the bridge. She made the wrong choice and died because of it but again she was not crushed by the weight of the boat. 

    In physics terms F=MxA

    The Physics was easy to understand, it was the last part to Grendel that confused me.

    Never ask an Englishman where he is from

    If he is from Yorkshire, he will tell you

    If he is not, it is unfair to embarrass him

    Different version

    Never ask a man if he's from Yorkshire......if he isn't he will be insulted and if he is he would have told you at least ten times already.

    Tug O War At The Spring Gathering

    Used to work for an old brigadier when I injured myself playing 5 a side football he almost had me on A charge, so count me out. 

    Before we do make the final decision to go ahead with the tug of war I will contact our insurers. I know, but someone needs to be boring and it might as well be me.

    Or Langley Dyke.  No pub, put peaceful and although there is some tidal rise and fall, off the main river and with an ebbing tide less than 2.5 hours from GYYS.

    You probably lost him with the no pub bit there

    I am with Wonderwall on this. We used Maffetts for many years, not because they were the best bling boats but because they were well presented with excellent customer service..... and very good value for money. Sara and I could get three to four weeks on Swallow for the price of one-week bling. Last year we tried Pacific Cruisers for the same reason. This year we are trying Maycaft and I hope they are the same. I have never hired from Sandersons so have no view on them. It is difficult out there and if we have bad experiences we should raise it with the yard and give them a chance to rectify.
