Derwent6 is twelve years old today. We launched on December 3rd in Debdale marina back in 2008 and it still feels the same as the first day we stepped onto her..
We could give you all the miles we have done and all the locks we have completed, but its just all about the lifestyle for us, and long may it continue. The memories of loading up the van with all our worldly goods and watching Derwent6 going in the water for the first time, will live with us forever, whatever happens in the future..
The day we christened Derwent6 with a bottle of special ale has stayed with us forever, we still have one of the bottles on board.
THANK YOU DERWENT6 for giving us so much pleasure and helping us with living the dream!!
