Abnormal Load and Convoii Exceptionell Pilot UK & European Maritime Transport

It’s been a busy couple of weeks in the yard doing trailer repairs as well as building this roof. Been learning a lot from @boatshiftSimon during the last few months and gaining more experience in the maintenance side of things.

What a privilege it was to help load this this morning, would love to have heard some stories about this boat!

The last 2 weeks have seen me drive over 3000 miles. Stared in Hamble Point and taking it to St Carles marina in Spain, then down to Dénia to re load and head home to Deliver in Bray. The last one was loaded in Gillingham in the rain and the wind and headed to Wroxham.

So this year has flown by and the van is parked up having a rest over Christmas. Couple off weeks off rest before hitting the tarmac for another year. Hope everyone has a good Christmas and a very happy new year @boatshiftSimon

Parked up at Wroxham ready to load tomorrow so I thought I would give the outside off the van a clean as I haven’t had time recently. Now she’s ready to hit the road. @boatshiftSimon
