Yes, . . I'm pleased to say, there are. There's been nothing more from Arnac so far about his boat, and the others, trapped on the Lancaster by the world's premier apology for a navigation authority, . . but I'm still trying to re-establish contact. There is also, as of midnight Thursday 9 September 2024, some significant progress with regard to 'March Hare', . . the second of George Ward's boats stolen by C&RT and Commercial Boat Services, on 11 May 2023, . . and this can be found reported on other Thunderboat topics/threads, such as - Navigation Authority or Government sponsored Scammers ? - The Abuse & Misuse of C&RT's Section 8 Powers - The C&RT Section 8 Notice. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With Thunderboat's name, its usefulness, and its effectiveness diminished to the extent it is by the all negative efforts of the forum's mindless know-nothing trolls, the owners with boats trapped on the Lancaster, on both sides of the Aqueduct breach, are being contacted by alternative means with offers of passage scheduling/planning and, if thought necessary, the appropriate level of pilotage assistance.

The ultimatum deadline is fast approaching... You had better do as you are told. I mean, look what happened to CRT when they didn't comply with the ultimatum to return Halcyon Daze.

I have it on good authority from my insider sources that Nottinghamshire police are about to launch their multi-divisional armed task force on a cross-border operation (Operation Shirley) to your location. So don't say you weren't warned.

Tony Dunkley is a well-known dangerous crank, bankrupt and fraud, and possessed of a most unpleasant demeanour stemming from personality disorders we can only speculate on (although some unfortunate experiences in childhood would seem to be the most likely cause). He offers advice to the unwary on a variety of boat-related subjects that, should you be foolish enough to believe and follow it, will likely see you separated from your boat at the soonest opportunity, or perhaps at the least, possess an engine worth no more than its scrap value, or simply a pile of components. His track-record of interactions with the Canal and River Trust is woeful, having lost two boats of his own to legal action he professes to this day was and is an abuse of authority. Notwithstanding these well-documented failures, he continues to promote the belief that he was and is right in every aspect, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. In the strongest possible terms, should you find yourself in dispute with the Canal and River Trust, accepting the advice of this self-appointed expert is, on any aspect, highly inadvisable. To date, the amount of boat owners Dunkley has assisted in preventing the C&RT from successfully executing a S.8 procedure is ZERO. NADA. NONE. If you are the recipient of a s.8 notice, it's likely already too late. The best advice is probably to remove your boat from C&RT-controlled waters as quickly as possible. Because if you don't, they will. And you won't get it back. Should you find yourself in contact with this lune, the best possible course of action is to immediately reject all further discourse, however it may present. While such matters remain as his core contention, he has also recently focussed on the operation of the 'Ribble Link'. Unsurprisingly only he knows how to safely navigate the partly tidal waters while everybody else is entirely clueless. He would love to test his theories with your boat and your life. Do not become his useful idiot. If those in charge tell you that on any given day passage is either not possible or not allowed, accept their advice. Dunkley will not hesitate to place you and your boat in jeopardy merely to satisfy his own twisted agenda. Despite attempts to claim or suggest otherwise, Tony Dunkley is in no way part of or affiliated to any boatyard or advertised marine services of any sort, and neither is he operating any kind of business relating to marine activities. Perhaps more importantly, he most definitely does not have any type of business insurance, and thus any eventuality arrived at through following his advice will be entirely at your expense. If you wish to spend many hours you will never get back reading absolute drivel peppered with psuedo-legalistic bollocks designed to confuse and impress the credulous, feel free to browse through nearly a decade of posts by this most persistent and implacable of obsessive trolls. However if you still believe Tony Dunkley is the crucible of truth in which C&RT will inevitably burn, then salute. You are clearly a person of great intellect, sagacity and wit. Fortune beckons. For a more positive but tragically laughable perspective of the life and times of Anthony Dunkley, refer to www.narrowboatworld.com, where you will find several badly-written and wildly inaccurate articles authored by his somewhat deluded supporter. Everybody has one, after all.

Maybe someone should open a thread for farewell speeches before the curtain falls forever.
Obviously it can't be me cos no one likes my threads.

Got home from visit my Grandma, dad's mum, and I was quite surprised to find that Thunderboat is still accessable and no posts have been deleted. I suppose all the threatening just amounted to a hill of beans
