A sad day.............
As I type this Pendragon is on her way oop norf to her new home near Durham. I hope the new owners, Nick & Sabrina, have as much fun with her as Mike (Scurvey Crew) and I did over the past 2.1/2 years.

Crew Peter! Don't you want to drive? I've taken over running the rib rides out of Gunwarf, I'll be looking for the occasional skipper . I've still got to teach and do the odd patrol.

All kicks off on April 1st. There will be two boats operating. The ribeye and an RS9 Pascoe rib called "Cardinal Sin" which will be for the more adventurous and will do more than short trips for the mass population. "Cardinal Sin will be MCA coded and will take punters out for longer runs - maybe even around the Island which it can do in 50 mins!! The RS9 will be ready for Easter weekend -

Sounds excellent. I understand the old operation down at Gunwarf was operating an un-coded boat or something. It's good that someone has taken over with a proper operation. I'll certainly be down there for a ride!

No- it was not uncoded, local boat licence and still in force. It was/is all above board. I have the papers to confirm that.

Looks like I was mis-informed.

Gunwarf would not have allowed it to operate if it was not correctly coded. If/when you come down make yourself known.
