Andrew likes to work in mysterious ways. Andrew doesn’t like work. Let's face it, none of us do. My job is tolerable at best and I do sort-of enjoy the novelty for the first week or so after I've been away boating for a while but by this time of year I never think "Fantastic! I'm taking another 26 pallets of Chinese tat to an Amazon warehouse tomorrow!"

He was gifted 8K. Crikey, I'd be very optimistic about buying a half-decent boat for that. But he has another one already. Mind you at some point CRT are going to hand him a bill for the removal of the sinker and if he's still on the canal somewhere that could be tricky.

He probably has a house somewhere to retreat to if it gets too awkward on the cut. Lots of people do.

What is a 'houseboat' ?
A 'houseboat' is what most people - including the people at the Government's Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy - would call a boat that's used for residential purposes in addition to sometimes being used for cruising, . . and it's also what the professional liars at C&RT dishonestly call a self-propelled canal or river pleasure craft, if it happens to have been licensed under the CC'ing clause (S.17, subsection 3/c/ii) of the 1995 BW Act, . . and if the Trust's corrupt management have targeted the boat and its owner to be subjected to one of their specialist frauds.
The fraud is initiated by C&RT's so-called Legal & Governance Services by way of a known (to the C&RT) to be inappropriate and dishonest application to the Courts, under Part 8 of the Civil Procedure Rules, for an Order for what is technically called Declaratory and Injunctive Relief. These Court Orders are applied for under the known (to the C&RT) false pretence of needing to to apply to and to gain the authority and blessing of the Courts to enforce the statutory powers of boat removal already available to the Trust under Sections 8 and 13 (respectively) of the British Waterways Acts of 1995 and 1971 (respectively).
Having obtained such an Order, the C&RT then use it to defraud targeted CC'ers out of their boats by employing bogus Bailiffs impersonating genuine officers of the Court - a serious criminal offence - to forcibly and unlawfully disposess selected boatowners of their homes and property. These bogus Bailiffs, working for and supplied to the C&RT by a crook called Brian Clarke of Commercial Boat Services of Chester, are deployed to lie to and convince both the boat owner and the Police that they have what amounts to a Writ or Warrant of Control that entitles and authorizes them to seize and take possession of the boat named on the Court Order. Once separated from its rightful owner, the boat is spirited away and disposed of, illegally, on behalf of the C&RT, and ultimately on the instructions of its Company Secretary, Tom Deards, head of what should and would be more appropriately called the Trust's 'Illegal & Connivance Services'.
On the other side of the 'houseboat' coin, however, . . when the professional liars at C&RT are talking to the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy, the Government department that decides on the question of eligibility for the £400 EBSS fuel payment in respect of boats licensed under the CC'ing clause (S.17, subsection 3/c/ii) of the 1995 Act, . . it turns out that the boats that are 'houseboats' when it suits C&RT and its dishonest lawyers and management for them to be, aren't really 'houseboats' at all, . . or at least NOT when the Government's Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy tells the Trust's professional liars that 'houseboats' on its waters ARE ELIGIBLE for the £400 EBSS fuel payments. Now, . . . why could that be, I wonder ?

He’s probably got a couple more years yet, going by how long It took to take Tony’s boat.

The first and second of the following quotes from yesterday's Wiltshire Times article are from the standard selection of garbage that C&RT send to their boat theft targets ahead of Brian Clarke/Commercial Boat Services' bogus Bailiffs arriving with the Police they've lied to about the power, and the type, of the Court Order they have with them. The third, and especially the fourth of the quotes are however, a particularly interesting departure from the norm :-
1) “We therefore now require you to remove your boat from our waters no later than April 5 2023, failing which we will remove it using our powers under Section 8 of the British Waterways Act 1983 and/or Section 13 of the British Waterways Act 1971 without further notice to you and you will be liable for the cost incurred."
2) “The removal will take place not less than seven days and not more than 28 days after the date of this letter.”
3) The Trust added: “If you make any attempts to prevent the removal of the boat, or encourage others to do the same, then this will increase the costs incurred for which you are liable."
4) “Where we have obtained a court order, we may also seek to enforce the injunctions which may result in your committal to prison."
C&RT's dishonest lawyers appear to be taking some note of the content posted of late on the pages of Thunderboat, . . which indicates that they won't be using contractor crook Brian Clarke or his Commercial Boat Services' bogus Bailiffs to 'enforce' this one, . . unless they, and C&RT Ltd Company Secretary Tom Deards, have completely taken leave of their senses.

I would have thought the CRT would have someone a bit closer to Bath for this case. I think CBS and the Greenwalls Farm storage are probably for boats from north of Watford.
The wooden wreck is unlikely to need a low loader or hardstanding storage I feel.
If I were a bit militant I'd be hiding a tracker on it just to see where it ends up. Could be interesting but probably a waste of money.
A tracker with a decent external battery.
