Eagles Providence

[Hazel Hackett]

Hi, my sister recently stumbled across a site about 36ft narrow boat Eagles Providence (www.eagles-providence.com), showing it’s recent refurbishment. My family (well, my Dad actually) are the original owners and would very much like to get in touch with the current owner. We have stories and pictures he might find interesting. I see in the photos that the cabin doors I painted with roses and castles over 30 years ago are still there!

Welcome, Hazel. I hope that one (or more) of our members can help you in your quest.

If you know the index number of the boat, CRT may be able to help.

Thanks, I’ll give that information to Dad.

It seems provident that you can add evidence to Eagles Providence provenance.

I shall not try to say that after I've finished the Hobgoblin Ale which awaits me.

I was quite glad I typed it rather than tried to say it!

Your taste in ale seems to be improving!

 

Whilst on the subject, I had a most excellent pint (or two) of Courage Best in Kintbury on Thursday. Not seen Courage Best in a pub for 20 years!

Dear David,

Yes, that is the one! Do you know who owns it? 

Thanks
