Excellent, thanks for that. Catch me standing anywhere near those taut cables, scary. Did anyone else notice the dead Alien in picture no. 24 ?

"He forgot"

My company sends me at least 3 reminders by post plus an email that they will automatically take the dough form my cc,unless I notify them that I do not intend renewing the cover..
Love to know who will be picking up the bill for salvage ?
Persume wreck will be sold and costs recovered.

Wonder when they are going to present him with the bill ?
I thought that was why we were all required to have third party liability of £3million on our insurance to cover this sort of thing.

So he's looking for volunteers to do the boat up for him. Show of hands please.

This is indeed a concern as the costs will need to be recovered somehow and I, for one, will be an unhappy bunny if they finish up being a drain on the navigation budget.
This is also an issue with unregistered boats, wherever they may be, as no registration means there is no evidence of BSS or insurance which should be a great concern to all of us.
