Dan Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Great pictures again Clive, that is starting to look totally irrestible! I will be keen to see the hire fees & start days when things get to that stage! I shall start saving some pennies now Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 Hi Clive. Thanks for continuing to post the photos - very very interesting! The project is certainly coming on now - looking good. However, are you sure you haven't confused the photos with the ones from Carols Broadland Memories gallery by accident - looks suspiciously like the damaged 'Fair Hilton' half way down this gallery: http://www.broadlandmemories.co.uk/page89.html Please fo keep the photos coming...... Best wishes, James. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DAYTONA-BILL Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Hi Clive, has there been much progress lately, or have the team been too busy preparing the new arrivals?. Regards ......................Neil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Ricko Posted March 3, 2010 Author Share Posted March 3, 2010 Hi Neil, we still have 2 men working away on her but for the last couple of days there has been a bit more setting up, organising and machining going on, but it is still progressing so all is well I took these photos the other day...

Jupes Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 The final picture looks like she is far too big and wide for the broads, bearing in mind the amount of traffic you are putting on them Rather relieved that most of them stay ooop north Fantastic thread, thanks Clive.

I am sure you would be ok with other boats on the river as there must be someone in your crew who can handle a boat The dog is learning fast.... or did you mean the shore power? dont worry, we dont supply leads That is so good to know, thank you Clive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbird Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 thats going to look sick when its finished Jonny Do I take it "sick" is more youth speak I don't get? In my day, "sick" meant awful, but I can't believe Jonny would describe any boat like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DAYTONA-BILL Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Hi all, I think due to the fact these boats have been designed and will be built specifically for the Broads, the name Broadlander is a must . Also worth considering is the name Broadsman, and, dare i say it, Broadsventure?. ONLY JOKING CLIVE...................HONEST . Maybe we should blockade Ricko`s untill Clive lets us have a say on what they will be named . Regards to all.................. Neil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
