Re: How the other half live.

How do some people have so much wealth, wealth people like us, who will never ever, even have a sniff of, yet others do not even have a meal for the table - probably don't even have a table?
Where does all that money come from?


P.S. Good job he got a better boat, the old one was obviously totally inadequate.

I once hired a row boat at Bridlington so I too know what it's like to captain my own craft....

I hope you practiced good seamanship and left a note of your destinations and ETA?

Life vests and PRB are a must.

I can't see boats like this without thinking of Goldie Hawn's yacht in Overboard! Wonderful vessel (both of them).

Didn't leave word of my destination because I didn't actually leave the harbour...

Hi

We had a Mirror Dinghy.

Dad won the kit in a competition and we built it in our garage.

Great fun, very simple to do, you literally stitched the panels together with copper wire.
