Oh no ... what a shocking ultimatum ... such a terrible quandary for kris ... what can he do ! Rog His best plan would be a visit to the real world, . . Alice, . . where he can start giving what little thought he's actually capable of to what he'll do when -- note: that's 'when', not 'if' -- the bodged up repairs to the damage he did on the Aire & Calder in 2017 finally fail completely, and A41 sinks. The only element of uncertainty with regard to A41 sinking is whether or not that event will precede or follow the withdrawal of his mandatory 3rd party insurance cover, due to the bodged repairs and the general poor condition of A41's hull, . . or C&RT exercising its statutory powers for the control of 'unsafe' vessels under Section 7 of the 1983 Act. As I pointed out a week or two ago, . . C&RT are NOT the only ones who gather information from browsing through internet boating forums, . . as Mr Shit-for-Brains appears to have so recently discovered from his insurers. Nb: If you look up the OED definition of the word "ultimatum", you'll perhaps find yourself able to use it in its correct context on some future occasion.

Having looked through kris's posts, I haven't seen him mention that his boat was taking on water - so perhaps it isn't? He hasn't mentioned this draft of a letter to C&RT either : -- kris nadin <krisnadin2002@yahoo.co.uk>

Hello, My name is Kris nadin my boat is called MEDLOCK index number 76914. I'm writing to you in connection with an incident that happened on the Aire and Calder on 26th-27th of sept just below heck bridge. I was cruising along this stretch on the late afternoon early evening on the 26th sept. I moved over to allow space for a passing boat, where I ran aground on a concrete block about 12ft into the navigation. After unsuccessfully trying to reflate by various methods my friend went and fetched his boat and tried to tow me off. Which was unsuccessful, by this time it had become dark so we stayed overnight in this spot. In the morning we decided to run my anchor chain across the channel and use the anchor winch to winch the boat off. I thought it was best to phone yourselves and inform you of the obstacle to navigation this would cause whilst in progres. After explaining to the lady on the switch board that I didn't want RCR and that she had misunderstood what I was phoning for I talked to graham . Who then said he would send a boat from the yard the other side of the bridge. The boat turned up after trying to tow me off, they then pushed the boat off the block.
I'm writing to you as I'm concerned about damage to the plates and framing of my boat. I understand a few boats have run into difficulties on this stretch, which is why you have placed the yellow lolly pops just after the bridge. As can be seen from the photo I've attached the place of this incident was a good 500m from where the yello signs are. I'm wondering if I encounted the problem, because the level was lowered for the work to be carried out at ferry bridge the day before. Kind regards Kris

Love, kris xxx But that's just concern, and doesn't mean there was/is any damage, and nothing about water coming in. Anyway, surely it should be a good idea to have the boat out of the water and have a look? That was 4 years ago? And the boat is still floating. The boat, A41/Medlock, is 'floating' thanks only to the 10(+) ton internal concrete bodge covering the damaged plating and hull frames. Why do you think kris is so irrationally petrified of moving or taking A41 anywhere when there's even the slightest risk of grounding ? If the internal concrete that's been placed over the hull damage, and the surrounding already weakened areas is itself disturbed or damaged by a hard grounding, then the resulting leakage will be both impossible to get at from inside, . . or to stop !

Best guess is that Tony thinks your insurance company has been spying on your TB posts and that is why you will need a survey soon.......................

Well, it's all very strange because the only thing I've posted about my boat were photos of it in dry dock being blacked, and the statement of Charity Dock owner Pete Gilbert, a man who has forgotten more about narrowboats than TonyDunkley will ever know, that the hull was in perfect unwasted condition, better than many boats he sees which are a third of Desiree's age.
The simple fact is that Desiree was laid down in 1986 and put into the water in 1987 so is either 34 or 35 years old depending which frame of reference you use. I don't know anyone who has obtained comprehensive insurance as a new customer on any boat over 30 years old without a recent survey yet that is what I did last year and this. It's far more likely that the underwriter Tokio Marine have a 35 year age limit on unsurveyed boats, I highly doubt they all sit in their offices in Japan reading Thunderboat all day.
