That's quite impressive in its way

wonder how he managed to do that.

Trust no-one was seriously hurt - if not they were lucky.

Will there be an MAIB report? always interesting reads.

I know a few of the LB crew who attended the incident, supposedly the boat/owners left the hut after food/drinks……….everyone ended up requiring medical assistance inc two that were air-lifted to hospital.

If that is the actual scene of the incident I think the word “cliff” is stretching it a little.

total hear say - I was told he'd bought a new boat and dropped the insurance on this one, furthermore - it's going to cost him £100K to remove and sort out the mess. I went passed it last Sunday, its been looted of anything useful and it has a sizable hole in basement!

I ‘heard’ the same, new boat on the way and no insurance, also due to environmental concerns and specialist l equipment needed the initial quote to move the boat and disposal was £850k………..
Whatever the truth is the Captain will ultimately end up a little poorer 🤔
