Roger Fuller Tug called Tobie

[Dudley]

Does anyone know the current whereabout of Tobie?

Speaking to a friend I understand it was spotted in the staffordshire area towards the end of last year, all well with it as far as I know.

Many thanks, the reason for my post is that at the time she was last marketed back in 2013 through ABNB we had a boat, and could not make an enquiry, our circumstances have changed and she remains the most suitable we have ever seen; just wondered if her current owners were considering selling her?

Picture?? - she might have changed name

Still the same name, it's been around Stowe Hill in the last month.

Many thanks for your feedback, I finally cornered Roger Fuller at Stone over the weekend and he had no knowledge of her either.

We finally saw her on the Oxford, with a bow cabin that defies description.

Any photos?

I am afraid not my hands were full, negotiating a 70' at the time.

'Tobie' passed through Stone late afternoon today.

Many thanks for the information, since our first enquiry we have purchased one of Simon Wain's finest and have only academic interest in seeing her now.

Just seen the owners of Tobie and they are still living on her. Been 12 years now. She looks beautiful
