  1. Very, Guessing that abandoned?

    He was my Great Uncle, Jeff Wray, his brother, was my Grandfather. But I found that out after he had died unfortunately.

  2. When was the fire?

     

    This was berthed next to me start of last year for a while, I let some of the crew have a rummage around my supplies and gave them a stack of food,,,,,, the head placement is priceless

  3. Am starting to think about the winter program for my barge. (No smart arse comments from you please Bad Kitty...)

     

    I carry about 350lt of diesel in my two tanks.

     

    The question is, at what level should I keep the tanks at over winter?

     

    Ive always kept them about 95% full over the winter months, but am interested to hear other peoples thoughts on the best level for over winter.

     

    Cheers

     

     

  4. My ole man owned Kahurangi for about 20 years. Came home one day in the 80s and said they had this wonderful suitcase sized thing that could pin point you position to within 400m twice day!

    She was wrecked in the Caribbean and the late John Olsen restored her I believe.

    He said every town they pulled in to would welcome them with open arms, marveling at her beautiful lines, and constant guitar playing.

    I believe she is on the hard somewhere in the Med.

    John thought about bringing her home, but also owned Okere so elected to leave it in the north
