Launched

I'm pleased to report that last Thursday the boat was launched at Batemans by our special guest Miles Huntington-Whitely and his wife. Miles was the little boy that was pictured in the orginal boat. I will attempt to load a few more pics up over the forthcoming days....

Full Steam (ahem ... I mean paddling) Ahead!

Hi Guys,

Know it’s been a long time since our last update, but as you can see we’ve been very busy!
Anyway, the pictures below show you the pictures of the first trials of the boat in water and as you can see it floats!
We’ve a few final touches away from the final launch but will let you all know when we have the official launch!

Like A Duck To Water

Keep on Rowing..........

The latest pics of how the boat is progressing. These were taken this week as as you can see it is coming along nicely.

Carved Through the Water.....

Its been quite a while since our row now and we thought we best update everyone on the progress so far of the new boat. So as a result Gary popped over to the builders to see how it was coming along. Subseqeuently we can provide you with the following pictures.....



Once again we want to thank everyone for the support given to us, we will keep you all updated on the progress of the boat, and the launch date soon.

For now

Splashed All Over The Media Again.........

Thought you'd like to know that we made the press of a few other newspapers after a bit of research.
