En route

One of our neighbours was working in this boat when we walked past this morning.
He’s just bought this 24’ boat & towed it up from Southampton.
He was just doing a bit of work on the electrics before towing it on to Ullswater in the Lake District.
He already has a boat up there but he wanted one that he can sleep on. ….my youngest son in NZ wants to exchange his for one to sleep on too 🤣🤣🤣not cheap though!
Had to laugh at the name.

Three good things:
1. A nice walk in the sunshine to the village, Harry for a haircut & me to the post office.
2. A coffee & scone in the Courtyard cafe afterwards.
3. We have both had our feet done….parents perks!

Great find and capture

[Barbara Paquette]

Great name! Will he keep the name do you think?

[Pat Knowles]

@bkp I wonder, I expect so as it’s very well signed……he doesn’t look like a naughty boy though!!

[Hazel]

You've reminded me of a boat we saw on holiday called 'yes, dear'.....

[Pat Knowles]

@quietpurplehaze Brilliant Hazel, he knows his place!

[Hazel]

@happypat

I might post it - still have the shot!

[Lesley]

Awesome! Love it’s name 🙂

[Babs]

Great name for the boat.

[Bep]

The name of the boat made me laugh too...

[Dianne]

@bkp according to my sons it is bad luck to rename a boat.

[Judith Johnson]

Looks like a very smart boat. Sounds like a nice day too

[Pat Knowles]

@dide Really Dianne he mustn’t then!! Sailors are pretty superstitious!

[Maggiemae]

I'm wondering if it is a yacht or a motorboat. No mast or keel but they might be taken off. Not much room on this narrow road to park a boat - or caravan!

[Mave]

Great name

[Pat Knowles]

@maggiemae it has an outboard motor maggie! It was only there for a few hours.

[Joan Robillard]

Nice shot

[Beryl Lloyd]

Great name !

[Phil Howcroft]

the cabin looks a little tiny, or is that cosy , to sleep on

nice story telling Pat

[sarah]

I always get a kick out of the clever names people come up with

[Jane Pittenger]

Looks ready to go

[Sarah Bremner]

Well you have to admire the enthusiasm. I'm not a boat person ... kayaking on the Yarra was a huge achievement last time we were in Melbourne, but no plans to repeat it!!!
Was 'the Courtyard' where we had lunch with you that lovely sunny summer day? 😊

[Pat Knowles]

@sarah19 No it was shut that day but on the opposite side of the road where we met up. We went to the Farmers Arms, I so enjoyed that day! I’m with you on the boating scene….kayaking on the Yarrow would be a step too far for me

[Pat Knowles]

@phil_howcroft Cosy I think but the length of this boat was long& sleek so perhaps more room than looks like.

[Dione Giorgio]

I like the name, too. Lovely shot.

[Lou Ann]

Sounds like a lovely day. That boat’s name is very tongue-in-cheek. Ha!

[Lady Magpie (Heather)]

Does he know something that we don't Pat? His name isn't Noah is it?
