With the help of the "phototutor". Well done. Even a technaphobe like me has now managed it.
Stand by;
Previous boat;
that gave way to anew style of boating.
For the river and all points right up to Lechlade, without even dropping the screen (Osney Bridge in background);
our 25 year old Freeman 33, with 2 little taxi engines sipping about £50 a year of fuel.
In addition now if we want to try foreign climes we shall charter. This year we went to the Friesland Lakes and had a very comfortable week aboard this Vivante 42, chartered from Sneek;
A most enjoyable week. We did not have to flog down the Thames estuary, spend the obligatory days in Ramsgate waiting for the weather and then tear up the French/ Belgian coast to spend the few remaining days in South Holland, nice as it is, worrying about the weather for the return journey.
Instead we drove 2 hours to Harwich, had a very pleasant night crossing fast asleep in our cabin to arrive at Hoek van Holland for a liesurely 2 hour drive to Sneek.
And for a bit of fun I bought this to absolve my concience, being Treasurer of the Thames Trad Boat Rally;
Its only taken me 5 years of postings to sort out this photo attachment business.
Bloody senile!!
