Here's something of a timeline of Narrowboat Nemesis...
- Dec 2007 - bought boat. It was described as 80% finished. That was 80% a lie. Non-running engine. Poorly fitted out interior. Primer slapped over worn old paintwork etc. Why did I buy it? I blame ebay and a bar in Brazil during the Grand Prix. And caipirinha.
- Dec 2007 - Sept 2008 intermittently lived on and worked on boat, before deciding houses were warmer.
- Sept 2008 onwards - generally neglected boat.
- 2010 - had hull epoxy coated
- 2011 - sourced replacement engine
- 2012 - replacement engine fitted.
- July 2012 - exterior painted
- August 2012 - boat fitout and filming for forthcoming Channel 4 series
