On Thunder we have a separate priority list for spare weeks. Once an owner notifies that they are unable to use a week any owner can put their name in for it and the highest ranked owners gets the week. They then drop to the bottom of the priority list. I have just looked at Thunders allocation chart from the past “off season” and from W/C 25th Nov through to W/C 3rd Feb she only went out for 3 of those weeks.

We live 30mins drive away and managed to obtain some free tickets and so drove and took the kids. Paid a lot for car parking but it was straightforward and the tickets were free. Joined the queue 15mins before the door opened. Once the doors opened we went straight to booking place for taster sessions for the boys to do- canoe, model sailing boats type of stuff. Queued for just short of an hour to be told everything was almost booked up but we could book model sailing boats for 19:00. We are good thanks. Then went to use the dry wake boarding thing. Queued for about 90mins for that. And that pretty much sucked the momentum out of the day.......... Certainly not rushing back and if it was ever on again I would not take the kids.

Some of the syndicates have school holiday shares- I have one :-) And in my experience in another syndicate people would often swap their school holiday weeks to avoid the peak times. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We saw MS at Horning Staithe yesterday afternoon and did a double take! (Having read on here you were still down south). And then waved this morning as we passed in Horning :-) Hope you are keeping warm. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Many happy memories on Board ES! Tell us about the boat..... :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think you are best odd speaking to BCBM about viewing etc. I believe Thunder only has the one share for sale. The other syndicate boat mentioned above is http://broadsboatshare.co.uk/7.html Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thunder has moved to Horning until the owners vote to moved her elsewhere. I would imagine it is the same with any syndicate boat. I believe Valet is included in the annual costs. We paid an extra £10 a month for maybe 2 years for the engine and the syndicate also owned a share which was sold so really not much impact. I would suggest that whatever boat you go for ask what is the bank account- a boat with £5k in the bank will absorb unforeseen costs than one with £500 in the bank! Thunder does have 3 school holiday shares which take up most of the school holidays. Let’s hope it warms up by Easter for mine! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Are the “kids” at school? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

BCBM don’t pay the toll- they will transfer the cash from the syndicate bank account to the individual owner that paid the toll. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Clive had a explained on Facebook- it is to align to their booking agents and to remove the need for their staff to make decisions about who is competent. It is Not an insurance issue. I have written the above in my own words- for the full text see the NBN Facebook group. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m pretty certain you go South to Breydon and then North to Horning.........:-) We are off to Richardsons in Horning who will be starting off by fitting a new engine! It’s all change! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thunder is out next week and will be heading south on a one way journey- goodbye Brundall and hello Horning!

That’s a shame- great style of boats. M Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
