Bugger! Not nice, I hope you get it sorted soon. Must have been terrible, watching it whilst being completely powerless :(

Yeah force majure is a b@stard! What's the point of having insurance if they don't pay out for stuff like that?!?!

OMG :eek::eek:
That is just truly horrible Richard. My heart goes out to you.
The good news is she certainly seems to have stood up to the battering pretty well. There's certainly a lot to be said for traditional build and craftsmanship. Wouldn't have fancied a similar experience with a GRP hull :blackeye:

Hope everything gets fixed up good as new for you.
