Wonders Never Cease

 Wonders really do never cease. This chap for example, whats his game?

The following article is taken from the RNLI website and is an account of what happened.

"On Tuesday 3 September at 3.30pm Humber Coastguard paged Hunstanton lifeboat crew after receiving a call on channel 16 from a vessel reporting that a 70ft narrow boat seemed to be acting in a strange manner, and appeared to be lost.

The volunteer crew of Hunstanton RNLI lifeboat, Spirit of West Norfolk, located the boat off Hunstanton, and went alongside to find onboard a lone sailor accompanied by two dogs.

The crew were concerned for the sailor's welfare when they established there were no VHF radio flares, navigation lights, charts or any navigational equipment on board.

The owner, who lives on board, had left Kings Lynn that morning and had been up and down the Wash all day. Furthermore he did not seem able to state where he was.

The crew escorted him and then took him in tow to make better speed so as to get him into the Freeman channel, and then on to Boston before the tide dropped away. The tow was transferred to the Boston Pilot Launch who took him into the River Witham to enable him to go up river beyond Boston and find a mooring.

The lifeboat was released to return to station and arrived back at 7pm."

What the bloody hell did this idiot think he was up too?
