There's one local to us which has been asking for people to man their rescue boat. I'm thinking of doing powerboat 1, and 2, to be able to volunteer.Been chatting to someone from a sailing club we're thinking about joining, to get back into dinghy sailing, perhaps racing too. Miss being out on the water.
Used to do that. We took it in turns, those of us racing. Didn't need qualifications then. I mostly was the second person, but think I had a go driving. Can't recall, 15 + years ago. Nice thing to do.There's one local to us which has been asking for people to man their rescue boat. I'm thinking of doing powerboat 1, and 2, to be able to volunteer.
It can't be as difficult as the skipper's ticket.
That's beautiful.
Good luck !This weekend we're helping the boy (finally) move his boat from Hemel Hempstead up to where we are in Northamptonshire.
It's all very exciting!
He was planning on doing it on his own, with just his (not very keen on the whole boatie thing) girlfriend to help, but we pointed out that the journey involves 48 locks and he's agreed that he could probably do with some help
So we've drawn up a rota involving me, Mr B and a few old boatie mates, including Mr Lizzieloo.
Wish us luck!
You have a real talent,
Not sure of the mileage, but it'll be over 4 days.Good luck !
48 locks over how far ?
Its good to have help for that bit, remembering the summer when we had Maggot with us and it was a heatwave. I had an asthma attack by one of the locks in Berkamstead, we had to keep forcing the dog to stand in the bywash to cool down. Good times and memories.
