I think that should have been Eccleshall, not Eccles, sorry

I have done it one and a half times in an old Folkboat, not mine but crewing for a friend who as soon as we left Lowestoft he had his head in a bucket so I did all the sailing. I say one and a half, at the first attempt we only just got past Birds Eye against the flow and went back to try another day.

There is a container like that on the GU

Chris Coburn I think went that way. I have been told that hire companies use to take boats from Gt Yarmouth to Lowestoft

Possibly my mistake

My best view is when the water is clear like the Thames or when the boat is out of the water

I like the floating back end so it doesnt need such a long underwater slip

I have a Marque hull, I think he and another chap only ever fitted out one at his yard at Eccles .

I have just read on Facebook a boater with a single alternator, 12 volt this time feeding his domestics and the started being served by an A to B charger. can you get a 24 to 12 A to B ?

Thats what I thought, so it could well have been badly maintained for several years

But did he buy it from them or has someone else owned it for 10 years and if he did buy it off them and its well maintained why is it smoking?

Who's boats are?

Did you see the article about a couple who bought an old Narrowboat there and hauled it out to black. the got complaints from the management about the noise of grinding on the hull, they left after a week on the slip.

I was at Little Ouse moorings for a time. http://www.littleousemoorings.co.uk/
