    Water supply on marina pontoons

    I think it is annoying not to have water available on the pontoons for a 3 month stretch. I was fully expecting water to be turned back on after the Cmas break. The fact that water isn't turned on has affected how often we have stayed on the boat over night.

    Wrapping vs Painting

    Burton Waters Boat Sales

    I did have a sale fall through with BW as they/their client couldn't produce paper work for the boat we had offered on. Almost like the previous sale had been brokered in a lay by somewhere. We didn't loose any of our deposit or suffer anything other than frustration as a result and have met...
