I gotta Boat Now. !!

[Terryb]

Well guys, I did it. No turning back now. I have paid a deposit on ALFIE, been on at Rugby boats for a couple of months.Think I got a good deal.Of course, its all subject to the final sea trial etc. But i dont forsee any problems. What did surprise me was just how little it shocked me when I boarded. Still, lots of work to do over the next couple of years, but then thats what I expected.

Right turn left for London. . . err. . or is it right?

[Naughty Cal]

Congratulations.

 

Oh and all boats are a work in process. The day you get to the end of the to do list is the day you sell the boat.

[junior]

Congratulations. I just sold my boat through them and both Dominic and Steve are good guys to deal with.

 

Where and when are you headed?

I often say to others

" There is never nothing to do on a boat "

 

Let me know whether you agree!

May I be the first to ask, "What's it all about?" I am sure I won't be the last.

[Terryb]

Thank you.

I dont pick it up till March 7th. I have to get the finances sorted. Nice to meet Paul and Steve, I didnt meet Dominic yet. All seems a blur today, as I bought a flat too. OOooer, its all gone dizzy. My plan is to bring it down to Hertford and CC from there in the short term. Long term will be to see the whole network, but I will have to retire to do that maybe next year or so.

[Naughty Cal]

Not jealous.

 

Much!

No offence meant. I'm sure you'll enjoy owning such a distinctive boat - you'll always be able to find it in the car park (trust me on this - our boat is purple).

Good luck and good times with it.

Pictures needed now!

Well done Terry, if your experience is anything like mine you will spend the next month wavering in between elation and "buyer's remorse". The second one will evaporate completely on the day the keys are handed over.

 

Is it this one?

Yes. Nice to see something different on the water.

That'll be a wrap then!

No offence taken. Never think that. It's great to get any feedback.

I've seen that boat at Ditchford on the Nene in September, & then just a few weeks ago at my home marina in Northampton on the Nene. Love the paint job. Congratz.

[Texasboater]

Gor Blimey Terry, Be careful wiv the birds on that boat......They'll get "all Mumsy" on ya!

[Shockabilly]

I saw this boat somewhere ( I can't actually remember where though) on our travels & actually thought it looked refreshingly different…well done on joining the fraternity!

[scrabble]

Beautiful boat, cant wait to get on one myself

[matty40s]

That'll be a wrap then!

I don't believe it is a wrap. Brush and airbrushed on.
