Me, too. Son and grandson love the boat and are coming from Essex in a few days to join me in a "there and back" cruise with an overnight half way. Not in the same league as you two but hey - a cruise is a cruise and it'll make a change from my usual solo day trip pottering. Enjoy your trips! |

Thanks Tom. Hope I can survive three weeks or more on the Norman 20. Longest away trip so far was ten days and although the cruising was nice the cooking and sleeping arrangements left a bit to be desired in the rather confined space. Been looking for a bigger Norman (a late 23,24,or 27,but have only seen rough ones or projects(which I don't want) and the asking prices!practicaly double what they were pre-covid! Still will keep looking. |

MH - yes, I think I'd find three weeks solo a bit of a challenge, but would love to try it! My N23 is quite roomy for three of us while on the move, but the main problem is at bedtime, when there's never enough room for all our things! |
