I have been watching this on and off all day and feel I have been with them all the way. Now it appears good news think I've earned a glass of red. Cheers. Very well done guys. You must be proud of yourselves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meantime Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 It doesn't appear to have slowed down, or stopped. Hope Robin is not intending to wade out to the layby pontoon between the bridges. Hope the crew are not to tired to later with a couple of beers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Congrats to the crew for safe passage into Yarmouth Unless there is some desperate need to reach Brundall tonight, surely they will be spending the night at Goodchilds? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnb Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 We were hoping to leave the garage by yacht station in time to give a wave, but the crew here are slower than that of independence! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NonTecky Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Just seen this on FB.... "Breydon Bridge confirms on VHF they are ready to let them through at around 16:15" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendel Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 there is a mooring spot just past the bridge on the starboard side (headed upstream) where they could pick Robin up at a pinch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendel Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 13 minutes left and the bridge is in sight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LizG Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I imagine it is more important to get through the bridge (or be ready to go through the bridge) than pick up Robin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatieR Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 First post for me ever on any type of social media or forum, but had to write. I've been watching from afar right from the beginning, from the BA story, Robins first blogs, his brave decision to follow his dreams, right up to his most recent, both brave and good, decision to give himself space today. Amazing job Robin, Griff and the whole of Team Indy, in getting this lovely boat ready for her move and then this tricky journey to a wonderful part of the country. I honestly think watching this whole thing has shown the most grit, determination and the best demonstration of true friendship and support I've ever seen?? Genuine thanks go to Robin for allowing us to share this experience with him, and Griff - not far now, get Indy home safely and then get the biggest tots of rum you can muster for all the crew... ? 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Robin has either got a cab round to the quay or....... my choice would be to watch them go under breydon bridge, deploy the rib to Asda to collect him for no other reason than it’s flash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meantime Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Getting closer, almost there. Can I just add what a sterling effort by team NBN. Nearly 180 users online at the moment and I would think the numbers have been high for most of the weekend on and off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grendel Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 pulled up to south quay- either to await the bridge or pick up the owner. (or both) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
