Rosie One has left the building

[wotu2uk]

Gone, sadly, off to Portsmouth to a new home as floating sunpad and occasional angling boat.

 

I took a Salcombe Flyer 530 in p.ex, bit like a Boston Whaler Montauk 170, centre console with 90hp 4s

so I won't be completely boatless

Well done John

 

I hope you have many happy trips on the new boat

Hi John

 

Sad to hear Rosie One has left the building, she was a great craft and I know how much time, effort and money you had spent on her.

 

I will always recall the memories we had on her especially the Swinge!!

 

If you are ever looking for crew or help just ask me John, only too willing to help you.

 

Glad to hear you wont be boatless

Hi John

 

Will keep our eyes open for your new craf

 

Shame to lose Rosie One to the lub after crossing the Channel with her

 

Best wishes

Was told in asda

 

I was too quick for the equipment

I suspect it was the sampling of the wine which was the problem!

Sorry to see here go John. Knew you had sold it a few days ago but a surprise to see the empty birth yesterday. Hope you get lots of enjoyment out of her replacement. You know you will always be welcome on KOM if you fancy slumming it. We do do later starts sometimes now we are getting older.

Allan.

Thanks all.

 

 

The new owner tells me that he and his wife caught more fish yesterday than I have caught in the last six months.

 

 

Went to Portsmouth to pick up the new boat today, It did not want to come with me.

trailer brakes seized. Spent most of the day running round looking for parts. I hope this is not indicative of the rest of the boat!!
