What if the broker steals your £50k and emigrates to Barbados with it? You won't own the boat AND your £50k will have vanished...

 

 

 

A reputable broker will operate a Clients Trust Account - http://greathaywoodboatsales.co.uk/page/displaygroup/54/clients-trust-account- just like your solicitor uses when you buy a house

[Boat length?]

I can see that this has been discussed before but I'm still not sure of the answer,

 

I'm going to be looking for a liveaboard nb and would like the maximum length boat that would allow me to cruise the full canal system.

 

Is this 57ft or 60ft? Does that include fenders?

 

Thanks

Ordered a skip for next week where i will be dumping all the stuff i am not bringing with me and the rest is getting picked up by a charity shop.

I will be out of this place by the end of August, on my boat in time for my birthday.

 

That is properly exciting ....I can't wait...good luck with it

Hello all.....in a year or two I plan to sell my house, car and most of my other possessions and go down the cut in a narrowboat with my 3 pointers...I doubt I will return!

 

I have much to learn
