Largo's rear port hole was also smashed last spring, by two yuvs in that pound at about 9-45 one night in Feb. I actually heard them laughing outside the boat, so I pricked up my ears and had a listen. Then there was an almighty crash that frightened the life out of me!
By the time I got out of the boat and gave chase, they were down by the next bridge legging it far faster than my old legs could ever go!
9i often wondered what would of happened if i had caught em!
I reported it immediately to the police and to Cart and got the local Cart officer's phone number. I phoned her a number of times and left messages, but never did I get a reply!
It's cost me £180 to get the double glazed window repaired, my insurance company wanted separate estimates to take out the window, replace the glass, and refit. and gave me reams of paperwork to fill out!
I did it myself in the end well, myself and Channel Glaze!
That insurance company did not get my renewal this year!
It's not the cost of replacing that is the problem, it's all the taking out, boarding securely up and getting the port hole to the glazers and then picking it up again that is the problem, especially if your a CC'r that cruises and has no other transport!
Lets hope the breach will be completed by the next cruising season, Autumn!
