Hello Alan, Just a note to say how much I enjoyed this episode of your vblog. Life affirming is what it is. Our yoghurt pot journey is just beginning. We are purchasing a Viking 26' centre cockpit (in rough condition). So, we will be glued to your channel.
Hi Alan & Steve , I hope you are both well, just watched this vlog as I do all of them, have to say this is one of the best you have done, loved the bit of you going up the Soar with the lovely song playing, (summer love) I need to get the same work done to my boat. Engine service and anti fouling, I am moored at Redhill Marina and would be very interested in the cost where you went, my Engine is a 15hp Suzuki and boat is 20ft so very similar to the Swamp Duck. Please keep the vlogs coming.
Hi Rachel thanks for your encouraging comment. The cost for the anti fouling which included taking the boat out of the water and yard space etc was £600, the cost of an engine service varies according to the service cycle. Last year it required just a simple service which cost £59 wheras this year was more of a major service over two days so more bits required and cost £98. in total for all the jobs I paid £838. I had the anti fouling done about three years ago at Sileby Mill and that cost £500 then but only had two coats and no primer. I would recommend Harris and Sons as they have forgotten more about outboards than most people know about them. Alan
Hi Alan Glad to see you on your boat again going to places we like too. Going up the trent and mersey to fradley then on to great haywood. We did Loughborough. Saw radcliffe lock with all the equipment they need. Enjoying your videos. 😊 18.48

@@TheBoatingAdventure Thank you for letting me know, that sounds a reasonable price and I will be getting intouch with them for a quote 😀
