Incredible stuff, good job it worked or it could've got messy ;-)<br />Barry and Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09414795991385028096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3518794157664726047.post-16496659378867124712014-03-25T19:11:06.943+00:002014-03-25T19:11:06.943+00:00We once did the Bunbury shuffle with 4 boats.

The hotel boat crew assured us it would work.<br /><br />So we all got to the a level and opened the gates. Then we pulled right forward until our bows were touching those of one of the pair. The cruiser just squeezed in behind us. Then the other of the pair came through, the boat in front of us pushed across, we two went forward, the other boat slipped in behind us and the final move took place. Then we and the cruiser separated and we closed the gates and off we went.<br /><br />What made it even more special was watching the butty's crew get their rope under the footbridge by tying a heavy knot in the end and swinging it down one side and up the other.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12123179680618965811noreply@blogger.com
