Diglis Basin

[Neil Coker]

Anyone moored at Diglis? I've bought a boat which is moored there and as I'm going to be there in three weeks was hoping to meet some other moorers and pick their brains a little.

Are the moorings there transferable?

[Neil Coker]

Already sorted that with the management there. I'm shifting her from a residential to a leisure which is all I need.

If you mean the one that looks like a Vietnam era gunboat that's the one! Just looking to take a look around and meet people whilst sorting out the refit. Be handy to get some practical advice from people based there as FIONN will be my home base so I will be there quite abit (work permitting)

Got lots of plans for FIONN over the next few months but have only had the bottom blacked, engine serviced, stern gland checked and new battery fitted so far. Next thing is full internal strip out and some alterations to the cabin and then a nice paint job

[14skipper]

Ah yes thats the one ! nice to see the gun port covers in place,also it has a strange/different extension on the stern.Have a mooring at diglis should you need any help.

You can always pm me if you wish.

You do have a good memory, USD! Yes, we moor at Diglis and are generally very pleased with it. Happy to answer any questions as best I can.

Congratulations Neil!

 

I looked at the pics you posted before and that looks like a good sound boat which, with some TLC by a caring owner, will look superb!

Was there in the summer Richard - seemed like Iago managed to get in nearly every shot I took!

 

When are you going to resurrect Canal Travel then?

[Richard Fairhurst]

I'll keep an eye out for your photos in future publications...!

 

c.t very likely to make a reappearance later this year. Watch this space...
