You would think they would know better!! Perhaps they thought they could tow the cruiser fast enough to lift if from the water? Trying to do things cheap has now cost them double bubble!!

Roydon Marina? Would that be Lakeland Leisure? Not like them to try doing things on the cheap is it?

(Where is that sarcasm font, btw?)

It’s now moored directly opposite me. It’s such a shame, it’s a nice little boat. The thing is that they clearly didn’t know what they were doing. They spent 3 hours trying to pump it out with a 3” petrol pump without covering any of the hull openings. The bow was under water and they didn’t cover the cratch drains. Basically, they were pumping the Stort into the Stort. The picture is not very clear I’m afraid5A73CAE1-4F96-4B86-828C-AF607E06441D.jpeg.da7aa2f6e53baaf017ee6636e5c691c9.jpeg
