Cruiser adrift at Wolverton

[1st ade]

If anyone owns, or knows who owns, a white, Broads type, cruiser (no name visible) which was moored near the Galleon Pub in Wolverton (towards the Iron Trunk), it's not moored there anymore! It looks like it has broken from its mooring on the towpath side and is now wedged in the bushes on the opposite side, in the old builders yard behind the pub.

 

It's accessible from the builders yard but without starting the engine or getting a tow, it can't be moved to a safe position.

This has been moored on the towpath site for the last 8 weeks or so, have re tied it myself whilst walking the dogs! Looks like a project been started, then left, shame really!

Am willing to go and retrieve it if the owner makes contact.

Are you sure it isn't displaying its name and number on a licence as per a recent post on this forum ? Only joking .

nice mooring.

You used to be able to rent that spot as a long term mooring, we nearly bought a house near there in the 80s and made a few enquiries about it. Can't remember the name of the chap there, he was a good boatfitter.
