A lot of boat movements...

...for a Thursday. Predominantly downstream it would seem, and some very lovely little trad boats heading down; spotters should get themselves to Teddington Lock with plenty of film in the camera (or whatever the modern equivalent is in pixels...)

I was sitting in traffic on Staines bridge yesterday and saw a river cruiser coming down past Church Island that just looked right; right speed, cutting nicely through the water, decent proportions, nice and clean, well balanced shape, not too big etc etc etc... sat a while to see what it was... congratulations No Regrets - your boat looks just right (c:

LoL - the Boat.

I know that the Broom 30s have cavernous accommodation for their size, I've always thought they looked a bit tall from the river, but it just looked right from a high vantage point!

I had the official tour last weekend, very nice inside with loads of room and of course "the bar".

Quite right too Cuchi

Thank you rr, she's a lovely looking old thing, but it's very kind of you to take the trouble to say so!

Yep, I'll go along with all that, I think you cruised past us while we were out rowing from Maidenhead on last Sat morning ? Am sure I saw the boat name and wondered if it was from here, and now seeing the description above. Very nice.
