April to May 2016

OK.....this is or first attempt at a blog, we (hopefully) intend to do a short update on a weekly/monthly basis with piccies so you can see where we are on our travels.

To bring you all up to date we bought Infinity, a 62' narrow boat in 2014, we both loved her.  The toilet area was a walk through which neither of us liked, Bob changed that so we now we can walk up a hallway with door into toilet.  The work took longer than anticipated but now completed.

Unfortunately the head gasket went on the BMC engine so the engine was re-conditioned and new stern gear installed.

We both retired at the end of 2015, staying in the marina over winter.

In March 2016 we decided to have Infinity out of the water for hull blacking and as she is nearly 30 years old we arranged for a hull survey....it failed miserably.

Infinity was booked into a marina for major welding.....6 weeks later we are still living in our little caravan whilst work is being completed..so that is where we are as of today...hopefully we will be back aboard in about 2 weeks then start our adventure....
