Hi, saw your boat being built, i think we spoke while waiting for ours. No idea when we will get it yet, builders diary has more pages per month then ours !

Your boat looks even better in the water.

Hi Bodger, yep his diary definitely has more pages than anyone else's, our boat was only 12 weeks behind promised delivery date.

Got there in the end though, the boat is great.

 

Bazza954, is that a boat builder near Botany Bay or what? I was at B B a couple of weeks ago but didn't see that boat place. Is your home mooring near there? What a beautiful boat. You must be so excited.

Hi Gingerbeer,

boat builder in Liverpool, just used BB to launch.

Thanks for the compliments, defo very excited can't wait to move on permanently.

Great pictures - enjoy your new life onboard smile.png

I'm sure we will, just had a week away. Recovering from a knee op at the moment.

I've finally worked out how to get photos on here using the Flikr app, so here's a couple of photos of my new (to me) boat, as well as a couole of photo's of what she looked like before having the cabin added. The old photo's are courtesy of the first owner, hopefully he doesn't mind me putting them on here!

EDITED TO ADD; Ok so it seems I haven't quite worked out how to do it! Even though I typed it has automatically changed it to once I pressed post. Anyone know how I can get the photos to appear in the post?

I got to see all of the photo's ok by pressing the 'view all sizes' option and as Athy says; "a very handsome boat indeed". Your patience when looking for a new boat was well worth the end result.

I agree - lovely looking boat!

 

I do particularly like the 1980s version, but clearly its later guise makes it a far more practical home, and it still looks very well proportioned.

 

A lot of modern day builders could usefully take note - yours is far prettier than many that are much newer!

Would I be correct that Albion used to be owned by Dave Sullivan and was moored at Braunston?

I've had no contact with the previous owner but I do believe Albion lived at Braunston for many years.

I'm sure that will be it then as Dave used to be a very active boater many moons ago but has been much less visible for years and I got the impression that Albion wasn't being used much over recent years. Albion used to be moored in Tim Coghlan's marina at Braunston the last time I heard of her.

No such option appears on my screen: for the 2nd, 3rd and 4th pictures, when I press the link I just get a full-sized completely black screen, with no controls of any kind.

Yes thats her. I bought her from the brokerage at Braunston and Tim did inform me that he hasn't been used for years and years.

I get the same but the picture does eventually load into the black screen. I've no idea why I can't get the pictures to appear in the post.
