NB Bouncing Ben / Caveat Emptor

[paulcatchpole]

Hi all,

 

Having finally gotten around to setting up a blog, and adding enough info to take us up to real-time, we thought it'd be about time we posted it here...

 

We're forum-lurkers at the best of times, although we've posted on a few threads here and there, where we felt we could offer something useful.

 

As a bit of background, we were enticed into boating by Kate's father, who picked up an ex-Black-Prince 62ft boat earlier in the year and got us hooked. We posted here at the start of our search, after despairing somewhat at the lack of barely-floating project boats for sale, but eventually found the right [hopefully] ship for us.

 

We'll be living aboard full-time from September 5th or so, just after my birthday! Hopefully around that time, she'll be coming out of the water for a quick hull survey and re-blacking, then the rebuild proper will commence.

 

Anyhow, if you're at all interested, here's the link to the blog...

It appears to syndicate properly via RSS, so if you're sad enough to want to keep up to date with our goings-on, you could do.

 

Cheers for all the help the forum has provided up to now - it's been an valuable resource for us. We're usually online most days catching up with forum life, so if by any chance anything we're written on the blog generates a question, just drop us a message.

 

Ta all, and happy boating.

 

Paul & Kate
