Yes I think in the not too distant future there will be lots of boats similar languishing in marinas forsale. Sadly, I've watched it happening for many years. They "buy the dream" and soon realise it's nothing like they were led to believe - I find it incredible you'd pay £142,000 just to give it a go.... There was a boat on my mooring called "Eau Rouge". Brand new, owners paid about £140,000 for it, drove it from Banbury to the farm, never set foot on it again, sold it about 18 months later for £90,000. It even featured in an article in "Towpath Talk".- www.ortomarine.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/EauRougeNov17.pdfSeems a bit daft to me, I paid about £23,500 for the Potato Boat and I've lived on it for eight years, but then I guess some folk have money to burn. |

Of course you'd not hear such vocalisation Aloysius as you'd be glued to Eastenders or something equally absorbing on your 43" colour TV with surround sound speakers no doubt. Rog I dont watch it anymore but I did go for a pint.😄😉  |
