The largest ship I was on was 277,000 tons and quarter of a mile long, but I downsized massively after that.
27' is an ideal size for the Norfolk Broads and I hope you have a lot of pleasure "meandering" on the water. It looks lovely there from your photographs on the other thread. Maybe I'll make it down there one day? Cheers, Jim

Built for Brian Chang, the owner of the shipyard, Asean Lady was an unusual design.
Fitting out. Dining and conference area. The bar. Lounge. Stairs up and down. Living area. Master bedroom. A satellite phone was later installed, so you could do business while doing your business1 Comms room. Bridge. A rather opulent toy!

I reckon it grabs your butt cheeks and sucks the contents out, saving you the effort of pushing..........

A touch of milk and no sugar please Jeff. I reckon I'm sweet enough, but the Boss doesn't agree.
That did make me laugh when I logged in. Ouch! The mind boggles.

A beautiful setting on Loen Lake in Norway, but above the boat and slightly to the left, there is visible scarring on the side of the Ramnefjell Mountain. In 1936 a volume of approximately one million cubic metres of rock broke off the Ramnefjell, falling into the lake causing a tidal wave 70 metres high. It washed away all the houses and farms, and caused a huge loss of life.
In the middle foreground of the picture below can be seen a brown object. It is the remains of one of the boats, washed high up the hill by the tidal wave. A closer view of the hulk.
