AND ALL WHO SAIL IN HER! ***RIVER BOAT NANCY

Hey chaps hows it going?  Keeping your nose clean?  Come meet Nancy 2 or to be accurate, Nancy II.  Isn't she beautiful? Yes she is. And the wife's not bad either. Bum Bum.  (That's going to hurt) 

Any road up shes a Viking 26 widebeam with aft cockpit, so more or less the same but without the back bedroom which means there's a patio at the back for "entertaining" or sunbathing with a beer if you prefer.

Nancy II (I'm sure she wont mind me saying) isn't as plush as Nancy but she has great potential. That's my way of saying she came complete with duff batteries, a boiler we cant get to go, no 240v and a wonky fridge. But we cut a deal for her and you have to price that sort of surprise in sometimes. Where was I? Oh yes , potential. Shes wider for a start, so you can swing a cat, and a "double" (bunk) is a double and not an aspiration. There's seating for six easy and the cabin is comfy. This is her on her christening voyage (we didn't scour the world for a boat named Nancy 2 and get lucky, we re-named her) where we performed the ritual re-naming ceremony (yes there is one and it does involve pointy hats and frogs) and cracked open the champers before cruising to the Dog and Duck for lunch.  



Just for completeness, here's a pic of lunch, which I think you will agree, is also beautiful. 

Thats it for now, Stick around though for the next thrilling installment....


Nancy II has set sail, God bless her....
