Victor Vectis

Yesterday on the Hatton Flight. No hydraulics were involved in this maintainence. 😀

Ahhhhh...... VIC32. A wonderful thing! ❤️

Or learn how to fly the Union Flag the correct way up.

Oops. Sorry I spoke. Can you ask it to move please. I might want to moor there next week. 😀

Wot! No boats?

We took a holiday on VIC 32 earlier this year (Recommended! http://savethepuffer.co.uk/ ) I was impressed by the way she was handled moving off certain quaysides, ie: spring rope on the stern, engine in reverse and out swung the bow. I'm going to try this where I can next time I'm on our boat.

They're not looking for Chelsea Horrobin are they? I mean, she could be hiding with whoever it is who is living on an, < ahem >, barge on the Felpersham Canal. 😀 (This will mean nothing to those who don't follow The Archers)

A bit like leaving a windlass on a spindle?

I've never done any of this myself but this book tells you how to do it: Screwcutting in the lathe

Miles Away featured on Google Earth passing the moorings by Birdingbury Bridge on the GU and tied up beyond the other side of the bridge. Dated 08/22.

Thanks for that John. We've still a couple of weeks before deciding which way we turn at Wigram's.
