ES2 Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 By all accounts the top of the wreck at Sutton Broad has been removed and paid for by the land owner. Although that was one of my favourite overnight mooring spots it is no longer possible to use it due the boat's concrete hull which remains there under the water so do take care there. Thanks to the land owner for tidying the spot up and I don't blame him for not removing the hull as that could be an expensive task. No doubt it will over the years fill up with silt and be overgrown with reeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaughan Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 I hate to say "I told you so" but we were debating last year about not wanting to have the job of salvaging a large flat lump of concrete out of a floating reed bed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not worried, I am quite aware how long standing members of forums of any subject tend to talk down new members with condescending comments.

Vaughan Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Oh dear! I am sorry if you thought my remark was condescending, or even aimed at you personally. It certainly wasn't intended to be and reading it back, I still don't think it looks that way. It seems so easy to offend, these days. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought my ! referred to the difficulty of salvage in such a situation. I think Marshman, talking of the problem, would have used an ! several times!!!!
