  1. Apologies - my mistake.
  2. Weren't/aren't Viking hulls built in Poland? We had a Polish-built boat and the quality of our steelwork was excellent. OP if you like it and can afford it, then go for it (pending survey of course). Would you be gutted if someone else bought it? Good luck.
  3. Thank you for representing the nicer face of boaters. I used to love meeting and chatting with hirers. As you and Dogless point out, they are always in happy holiday mood and are pleased to pull their weight at locks.

  5. Hope you feel better soon. Marianne x
  6. Haha. We did comment a few times how dull it would be to have a boat on a loch when one is used to traveling around a network. I genuinely am puzzled - he is definitely talking about doing work on a steel hull. Is this not on a narrowboat?
  7. That's really useful! What a font of knowledge this place is. 😊
  8. Now I am really puzzled! Been away in the Outer Hebrides and feel I've landed back in a alternative reality.
  9. Waited near one of the bridges on the Monty a few years ago as there were fresh otter tracks in the mud there, but didn't manage to see one. Perhaps you might be luckier.
  10. Haven't been following the forum closely recently. Pleased to hear you got yourself a boat @Gybe Ho. What is it? How much work do you have to do on it? Are you still planning on electric propulsion? Piccies please.
  11. I feel for you - I used to love my Go Windlass.

  16. Last time we did the Fossdyke I found the number of dead deer rather upsetting. It was during a very hot spell and I presumed they had come down to drink, fallen in and were not able to clamber out due to the steep, high sides. At the time I thought the number and condition of deer ramps were inadequate. Also thought it would have been nice to have drinking troughs available so they didn't have to put themselves at risk.

  20. Absolutely agree. That is horrible and I hope CRT take action.
  21. Exciting! What is your YouTube channel called? Will follow your build.
  22. @shaun15124 thank you for taking our comments in such good spirit - and especially mine, for calling your boat ugly. I genuinely want you to be successful and believe you can be. Good luck and I will be following your journey with great interest.

  24. Appreciate that came across as ruder than I intended. I was merely trying to point out that it really does matter whether a boat is aesthetically appealing to a prospective buyer - especially when the boat is competing against other high end products.
