Oh wow - that's lovely to see...👍👍

Thanks Alex - I will pm him....Dan didn't as I asked him... 👍

Anyone got contacts for her new owners..? 🤷 ( the folk who recently bought her from Braunston - members of this forum - sold her on ) 🤞

..not as easy to find as one might hope actually...I've been looking for a while.. 🙂 .. after chatting with a couple of folk selling - it does matter to them who they sell to - they want their boat to go to a good home who will appreciate " it " 🤷🙂

That would be great thank you 👍

I'm definitely persuadable....? 😎 Thank you

..build slot at end of next year so far... 🤷🙃

Yes - I've got a LinkedIn profile already and I've sent a message...I don't think it's an active profile for him but it was worth a punt.. 🙂👍 Thanks Alan... I will continue looking for an unconverted Grand Union in meantime or tug...I'm in no rush... Cheers

Thanks everyone...I really appreciate your posts here - they have helped a lot 🙂 ..now if anyone has contact details for Phoenix Carriers shout me! 😁👊

Yes mate....I've had a couple of these working boats before and made a few new ones back in day... 🙂🙃👍 .. really nice boat I think.... quality - got just the right stuff from the pictures I've seen.. Real testament to Graham and his work 👍🙏😎

THANK YOU 👊🥰 ...that's just what I needed... Cheers

..and she looks incredible Dan 🙏😎 I'm more thinking a Grand Union or possibly Waterways motor...those Knobstick lines are beyound my reach 😁

Thanks guys ....there have been some new build working boats built over the years - some to my eye have been very decent boats where others have lacked the shape somehow... Arundel looks really correct to me 🙂😎 I can put a rough figure to steel but the skill is hard to quantify.... 🤷 I'm not having much luck finding an unconverted motor available so just considering options... 🙂👍

Unconverted..? Roughly what would it cost to make a big union welded copy now..? ..for the steel work I mean.. Any ideas..? 🙂

Thank you....Id just found the reference here myself lol - Thanks Davidg... You don't know what happened to her after she stopped working..?
