Alvecote Historic Boat gathering - "One Big Weekend"

(Boat Flamingo - posted by Alan)

(Bank Holiday Weekend 24th to 26th August)



The "Northwich" boats section - Flamingo shares space with Seaford and Cyprus.
We have had an absolutely cracking weekend at Alvecote.

Most of it was in blazing sunshine, so clearly we couldn't spend to long over-heating in our own boat, and needed to go and enjoy the pleasures of the "Samuel Barlow", to chill out with friends, or to just  blag a ride around the parade on somebody else's boat.  I'm sure that our bar and food bills will have outstripped any time we have been previously!

We do have a fair number of pictures of other people's boats, but not exactly a lot of our own, and when I have more time, and better connectivity, I'll try andf work out how best to put up an album of pictures.


It was a stonking weekend - the best yet, and definitely the premier historic boating weekend of the calendar, in our view.

Boat movements - none in Flamingo.
