SJC's Boat Thread


Recommended Posts

What's the toilet like? Can it flush away half a pound of mashed-up Dundee cake?

Of course....is a normal toilet plus has a shower too.

Were you moored at Linlithgow a few weeks back?

I'm sure I cycled passed a boat exactly like that.

Yes....next to the bridge.

At least if you drink in Cargo you won't have far to stagger home. Plus you will be able to pick up a few pretty shipmates out of there most nights of the week.

My thinking exactly ;)

Hopefully this video will clarify matters.  Be safe, SJC.

 

Thanks mhak. I'll be sure not to attempt to sail my narrowboat accross the iceberg infested waters of the Atlantic Ocean.

Staying safe, SJC

If you give boats cider vinegar pills it's impossible for them to sink.

I had a boat for a wee while, it was only 300 quid from some mutant in fife. Had it out on Loch Awe once when a few mates and I went fishing. It was fun for a while but it was a total death trap, there were leaks and all kinds. Took ages to get rid of the fucking thing.

So aye, I'm okay for boats. However, I was up doing some environmental stuff in the highlands a few months ago and was going through Invergordon when the Caribbean Princess had stopped there. Incredible ship, definitely the biggest I've seen. I'll see if I can upload a photo from my phone.

They do require maintaining. If you have a boat on any of British Waterways canals the boat needs to have a valid BSC which lasts for 4years.

Some nice boats up on the Calidonian canal.....worth hiring a cruiser from Caley Cruisers for 4days and taking it down to Fort Augustus.

Ah ok...good to see my difference in opinion hasn't riled you enough to seek me out elsewhere on the forums though.

I am allowed a different opinion, aren't I mhak?
