grendel Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 ah, good, no need to keep speculating any more then. 3 Quote
andyg Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 Wonder if they will put that on a low loader and take it by road back to HW. I assume the insurance guys are going to want to have a look. Glad to see it up.Β Quote
FlyingFortress Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 Happened around 1230 ish today. SOB was stopping traffic, including us, so it could get towed by EMS into the Marina.Β It was a bit of a "phew" moment for us as at first I thought I would have to follow them down The New Cut. 1 Quote

Andrewcook Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 Hi, Grendel it is good to see she's now afloat for a temporary repair to the Hole underneath her to be done and brought back to Herbert Wood Boatyard. I must say the people have been looked after by them to which I do commend them for doing that very quickly and now they await for their belongings. Quote
andyg Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 I'm not sure if it's just me that feels this way, but again another example of over zealous moderation. Grendal I know the job isn't easy but there was absolutely no reason to doctor thoses pictures. In fact you've made a bit of a hash of it to be perfectly Frank. Why that just couldn't of been left alone is beyond me. Its all getting a bit silly now... 7 Quote

Why that just couldn't of been left alone is beyond me. Its all getting a bit silly now... I agree, the identity of the boat has been in the public domain since shortly after the incident. I can't see the point in this (arguably) overzealous moderation as it serves no purpose. The point of moderation is to protect individuals involved and avoid "naming and shaming" etc. As long as something is in the public domain and no one is being named or shamed, then there is no point in removing or doctoring a post.Β Yes, those who moderate are always saying they have difficult job - to some extent I agree. However, this is another case of the moderators making a rod for their own back. As the moderation team in a group where I am a moderator say, "Moderators should not become the story". 3 1 Quote
ExSurveyor Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 A member of the mod team hid the post for 1 hour to confirm if it breached the ToS. They are not perfect, but who is. Given that it is the middle of a working day it can take time to discuss. They don't spend all day watching the forum. If a member canβt wait, or be bothered to message me or the mod team, then don't start moaning about it on the forum. The post was reinstated within one hour, sorry for the delay. Yes, I am getting fed up with the moaning. We do our best to protect members and the forum but do have lives to lead. Β 6 Quote

The previous thread was locked and now we can clearly see why. The buzzards are circling around the corpse. I thoroughly agree with Grendel and the mod team. 3 2 1 1 Quote
CeePee1952 Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 oh dear, here we go againΒ Β please let's not turn this thread into another tit for tat slanging debacle. For some of us that live outside the boating fraternity, this forum is a joy to read and particpate in, if I want to experience tit for tat messages, I'm sure there's somewhere else on the internet (not that I would!).

Which in a way could be a good thing as most these boats have the original galleys etc still in place. Good chance to upgrade things.Β 2 Quote

Tobster Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 I agree with the moderators, Why is it so important too know the name of the boat and which yard itβs from?Β I personally, was quite happy reading the thread about the unfortunate sinking and the info that all involved were ok, without knowing the boat name or yard. itβs probably one of a class so what does it matter if it was number 1 or 3. 3 Quote
JawsOrca Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 I must admit it would be nice to know what caused the sinking (Personally that's what I've been hoping to find out) and to know that the BA/EA/Network Rail whoever is responsible have done all they can to find that out and it's safe to navigate down there and marked etc.Β I'd guess that hull has a very strong layup (Far thicker than modern boats) and I for one wouldn't want to go down there until I know it's safe. This is what the NBN forum should be useful for (and once was). 6 Quote
MargeandParge Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 Hi All There is plenty to appreciate from what has happened without bickering.Β FIRSTLY OUR EMERGENCY SERVICESΒ 1 Nobody was hurt 2The boat was designed and built to be strong enough to cope and not break up with the accidental damage that happened to it. 3There are better educated people than ourselves that are able to safely recover the vessel.Β 4The owners of that vessel realised it was an accident and looked after to the best of their ability all those involved without malice.Β 5The Authority that brought it to our attention and marked the hazard to avoid any more problems.Β So thank you for all the above as it helps Marge and myself enjoy The Broads.Β Lastly thank you mods it helps Marge and myself enjoy The Forum.Β Kindest Regards Marge and PargeΒ 5 Quote

This is what the NBN forum should be useful for (and once was). I should think all is OK now as it seems the unfortunate people on board hit the bank, easy thing to do when they are submerged. Also both myself and Petersjoy have been through there today and mine is still floating. Hope Petersjoy is OKΒ 2 Quote
