We have had a great bank holiday weekend at the Crick Boat Show, with so many positive and lovely comments from people.
There were still lots of people at the show today despite the rain which continued most of the day.
The big surprise for us at the end of the show was that Chance was voted runner up in the Best of Show. We would just like to thank so many of you who took the time and trouble to vote for us! and those who came up to us to say they had voted for us, it was a complete surprise and we are feeling really chuffed that people thought so much of Chance.
The winning boat was William Piper narrow boats Ltd – “Barolo”
2nd Place runner up MGM Boats Ltd.'s - “CHANCE”
3rd Place Braidbar narrow boats – “Bunnies Warren”
No pictures today, as we are very tired after the wet day. We celebrated the end of the weekend with a bottle of champagne on NB Toulouse (Piper Boats) our neighbours and new friends for the last few days.
Congratulations guys, I said that you had a winner on your hands. Its the J Lo that did it!

ReplyDeleteHi Guys,
ReplyDeleteIt was a great honour to meet you both and to see Chance for real. In my mind you should have won but I guess you are rightly proud with the results.
Chance is better than the pictures give her credit. She a beautiful boat and we do hope you continue to relish living aboard her.
We'll follow the blog with interest and hope to cross paths on the cut in the future.
Hi Steve and Chris. It was just as much our pleasure to meet you both, thanks for coming up and introducing yourselves. We are more than happy with runner up as there were some really lovely boats on show! We hope that we meet up again soon, if you are near us at anytime let us know so we can meet up for longer next time.
