A year of firsts

Well 2010 has certainly been a year of firsts for us. It all kicked off in February when for the first time we had Naughty-Cal chocked ashore for her first spruce up since we had purchased her. It all went suprisingly smoothly.

Then not long after she was relaunched we went down the Humber for the first time in the middle of March. The weather was brisk but the boats performed well.

June brought with it our first trip out to sea, with a coast hop from Boston to Wells next the Sea. A great trip was had by all and another trip for next year is in the planning. Lets hope the weather turns out as good as it was this year.



August brought with it the first holiday away with our good friends off Wish You Were Here with a trip to York. It was also the first time they had ventured downstream on the Trent, hence was also their first time on the Ouse.

December, and a more sombre first. This month has been the first time that we have genuinely been concerned for Naughty-Cals welfare. The cold weather is having a huge impact on many boats across the country, with damage reported from many areas. Lets just hope that Cal isnt suffering too much.
