Hi.

What sort of boat ?

Always good to have more boaters on here.

You can call me admirable.

Hi.

Always good to have more boaters on here.

We live on a 57ft NB that we fitted out 20 years ago. Prior to that we had a smaller narrowboat, a Dawncraft in the 70's, a Dolphin plywood cruiser in the 60's. Early days were mainly Leeds and Liverpool canal.
