  7. Now that's a proper boat! She looks lovely.
  8. I was quite disappointed that I can only see the Chimney of Vienna when she was moored outside our house.
  9. Thank you, much appreciated. Thanks to everyone who has replied so far and also to those who have e-mailed me info and photos.
  10. Thanks! Looking at the website Pirate Viscount does look like a very early NC.
  11. Adrastea is a popular boat, I've already been sent info on her. Haven't had any photos yet, so anything that you have would be good! Edited to add: Dominic, do you have any photos of Avalon Mist?
  12. Justin, Not sure I'll be there on Wed, but I'll probably have to pop over at some point with the back cabin plans! Be good to meet everyone. Sarah

  14. West Bromwich Albion have a Baggie Barge that runs from Birmingham City Centre. IIRC the boats are an Admiral Class Motor and Butty.
  15. Thanks, Paul Thanks for that, I have a feeling that the Braines are going to be harder to Catalogue as they went by job number rather than build number!
  16. Paul, Maelstrom is one I need! I've got Apache Sarah
  17. Thanks Bill and Denise. I have a photo of Derek's boat, number 1085 (IIRC off the top of my head) NB. Endeavour. Sarah
  18. Hi All, My father, Graham has owned and run Norton Canes Boatbuilders since 1986. He is currently building his 100th boat for Norton Canes, NB. Honesty. Inspired by Sarah's Town Class Sticker Album I have set myself the challenge of finding a photograph of every boat that he has built. While I'm at it, I might as well make a gallery for the Malcolm Braine boats that he built too! I've made a start by creating an owners gallery on our website, which can be found here: http://www.nortoncanesboatbuilders.co.uk/register.html As you can see I'm quite a way off my target, so I need a bit of help… If anyone on here owns, or knows someone who owns a Norton Canes or a Malcolm Braine boat could you please send me some information about your boat? I am looking for the following information: Name (If re-named, both original name and new name) Build Date Build Number (Norton Canes will start with 10 ie. 1001 for number 1) Length Other Info (Engine, Fitter, Mooring, whatever you want to tell me) Photo (either current or old photo) Please sent any information that you have to: sarah (at) nortoncanesboatbuilders (dot) co (dot) uk Thanks! Sarah

  20. Hiya, I'm not 100% sure, but there's Little Woolwich Butty in the Grove at Norton Canes, it has no name on it, but it looks like it could be Meteor. She was based at Aldridge Marina on the Daw End Branch for quite a while and had a weird conversion. Butty in the Grove on the Cannock Extension Meteor at Aldridge Marina
