She has now gone to new pastures (rivers?). The Avon, I believe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a plot of land just down from the old yard but I don't want to run into someone down there who a legendarily unpleasant individual and one of the key reasons I closed the business. He helped send me into depression and the thought of bumping into him is not nice Blimey sorry to hear that Andy. Shame you've not been able to enjoy her.

I saw Sunbird leaving on a low loader from NBD on Thursday morning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WherryNice Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 She had some sort of trip on the Broads before leaving, as we saw her at Stokesby back in July(after she was listed as Sold). A shame to see such a nice one leave in some ways but good luck to her new owners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regulo Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 There were three - Sunbird, Seabird and Songbird. Built 85, 86, and 87 I think. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
