ages since I have posted on here.Have lost so many family and friends in such a short time,Also have both been made redundant,have seen our daughters house burn down! But I think it just might be possible to keep the boat!!!!!!!! Neglected in a way I always scathed about ,but now understand, ie when you see a boat sitting ,looking uncared,and you think "why,lazy,etc" have not been near in months, have not sailed in two years,but might just be able to keep her and start to maintain her again! it is still "might" be able to keep her, but god I hope so, and back to boring you good people on here!

I really hope so for your sake, boating is a way to focus away from past problems and get some stability and you have certainly had some issues of late.

Go for it, don't spend loads, get out and use her again, you can always take a paint pot and brush with you and do a little after you moor up - I fitted Ocean Adventurer's rails, stanchions, davits, etc that way! Mind you - she's been sold on now and last I saw her the new owner's had let her go badly!


Finally living the dream!

Best of luck with it Raymond

Sounds like you're due some good times.

I've just started on my N20 and often just lose track of time and everything when I'm busy on it.. Bit of music and crack on, fantastic!

Good luck with it pal #128522;

Hope you can keep her, and good luck in the future.
I lost my parents within 6/7 weeks of each other bloody cancer.
They were not that old either.
If you can as clive said get afloat.
