Next, another train journey to Brugge. The boat there was also newish, but not really finished!
Much too much work to do, and too expensive.
Back on the Eurostar to London, and on to Aberdeen by train.
We thoroughly enjoyed our brief Belgium interlude, and are looking forward to doing some Belgian waterways in the future.
I still had to show Karen the Molenkruiser I saw last year in Nottingham. So that was another hectic weekend. Hired a car
and drove down on the Friday. Saturday, saw the boat and even had a short spin on the River Trent.
We also had a look at another Stevens 1040. A lovely little boat, but a touch small.
Drove back on Sunday!
Then, to make a last comparison, we looked at a Pedro 36 in Hull the following weekend. Also a good boat but again a bit small.
Well, my favourite boat all along has been the Molenkruiser in Nottingham, and fortunately Karen thinks she is perfect too!!
So we have come to an agreement with the owner and subject to survey and all that administration, she is ours!!
Another hectic week coming up then - back to Nottingham for the lift out and survey - sometime early June.
