I'm not a boat man, why are the boats sinking etc ??? Bad news though

 

[Davem]

Norman , if your at the marina tomorrow can you check Swordfish please ?

 

[KeithB]

The mooring ropes snapped I think.

Bert said Davey had to helplessly watch his boat sink.

Shady was okay when he checked earlier.

 

[lead chucker]

Very sad lads loads of fences blown over in my estate but it doesn't compare to your boats lads hope you get strapped down or recovered, is it just wear or seaham too

 

[Norman]

Norman , if your at the marina tomorrow can you check Swordfish please ?

Will do Dave, down there tomorrow

had a boat sink on the wear, good while ago now and through no fault of my own, gut wrenching feeling man, took a few balloons to get it back up.

That's the headline that every owner and crew dread seeing. I hope that any damage or loss is minimal and tomorrow's weather let's everyone secure their boats again. If help is needed just ask...

I'll be down at the RQ tomorrow checking my boat. If anyone else wants someone to look at theirs then let me know.

Last time we had a big flood the river filled with debris, we'll need to watch out for more this time.

 

[Davem]

There are 2-3 others in RQ from the Midlands Kevin according to Office , very kind offer ( think they are yachties )

 

[Charlton]

son was out on lifeboat late last night chasing the ferry around the lower Tyne before it went on the rocks

 

[KeithB]

Full team down the quay this morning, heritage coble now secured on another mooring, few small boats recovered and I think divers were going to look for the sunken boat. Fingers crossed.

 

[Norman]

Norman , if your at the marina tomorrow can you check Swordfish please ?

Swordfish and on a roll all secure Dave. :thumbup:

Norm

 

[Davem]

Thanks very much Norman , I'll let Richie know

lads great to see help and support available all over the place with this really bad weather creating havoc all over the place. I have been to Edinburgh this weekend (which is another story) does anybody know if the boats at SSBAC are ok?

 

[Tadpoleman]

All is fine at the club Howard there all moaning and winging so its business as usual without any storm damage

 

[Jimbob]

Sorry to read this. The rivers look like the chocolate river from Charlie and the chocoloate factory and full of debris. Good luck to anyone who has had issues
