LondonRascal Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 I’ve had message from Griff (who is currently sailing around the Greek islands on a yacht) that he requires crew – no not for the yacht and sun tan in the Med – but here in blighty on the Broads! Broad Ambition will be attending the Vintage Wooden Boat Show to be held in Beccles on the weekend 15th August (I trust I have the right date and name of the event.) On the same date there will be the Beccles Carnival and a Vintage Market taking place at Beccles Quay. I am not going to be able to attend, and Griff has found himself with just his pair of hands to crew Broad Ambition from Stalham to Beccles. If anyone wishes to give him a hand and have a good time both on board the boat and with the activities in Beccles please either reply to this thread or send Griff a PM here so arrangements can be made. Thanks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Springsong Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Normally yes but I am a little short handed as well, but I at least have one crew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baitrunner Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 I cant believe no one has taken this one up yet? I would have volunteered, but will be out on our boat getting it ready for the BH weekend trip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxwellian Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 I would have gone, but we will have just spent two weeks on the Broads so I would be pushing my luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StillCruising Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Wow, no takers. We would have volunteered but we will be taking Miss Lisa to the Seamaster Club meet at Beccles on the other side of the marina. Woodys and Seamasters in the same place, living the dream. Best Regards Bob & Karen 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baitrunner Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Beccles is going to be heaving. Would have taken the boat down if we had known to see the sights, but bet the moorings are all taken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best Regards Bob & Karen to the forum from me.. P.s that does seem to be a real "them and us"!!.. Plastic Orca will be over by the woodies though (Hopefully!).. She does a fair few grand worth of timber inside lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeilB Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 This is the 2nd time I've missed out on one of these trips! Visiting friends that weekend. I'm sure someone will be along shortly though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warp Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 This is slightly surreal none of us can crew aboard a fantastic boat with a great skipper? Robin you should sell tickets as a 'weekend broads experience aboard a skippered boat' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
