I'll honour your request Steve but it sails in the face of a long rich history of threads going off topic on this forum, one that has been indulged and even contributed to by the Mod team. A sad day IMHO.

A sad day, TT? Perhaps, but it pales into insignificance when compared to the obvious trauma the owners of the boat that was senselessly vandalised by a moronic individual (or individuals) must have suffered. Bad enough that the boat was deliberately damaged, but that it was done while the owners were asleep on board...
(Sorry, I seem to have returned to the topic  )
Been hit by another boat? Report the incident to the Marine Accident Investigation Branch’s dedicated accident reporting line on 023 8023 2527 which is monitored 24 hours a day. Help to make the Broads safer.

Absolutely agree Pally, my heart goes out to the owners, we don't know the full story but as a specific boat has been targeted and others there at the time not, I would suggest that someone has a beef with that particular person. Now nothing justifies criminal damage but there are usually 2 sides to every story (well 3 if you consider the truth to be a side) I would like to hear the story behind it and keeping posts front and centre may actually lead to someone coming forward with information that leads to the truth and the culprit.
Without being able to judge or take sides on the potential causes it's hard to see any further comments being made on this thread and it will quickly disappear off the screen and out of peoples thoughts. At least by letting the thread drift to a wider discussion area it would keep it on the front page and as the Mods justification was to keep the topic fresh in peoples minds it seems perverse to stifle the thread in this way. As I say if you look back over the years threads have drifted over a number of subjects many totally unrelated to the OP, that was what the forum was all about.

Whilst I can not agree with Flonker I certainly can with both Dave's and Paladine's recent postings. I don't suppose that we shall ever know the answer but I do wonder what could possibly have induced such inexcusable behaviour.
Re us BA Bashers, no such thing back in the days of Prof. Aitken Clark, Dr Packman's predecessor. Draw your own conclusions on that one. I do wonder what the Broads of today would be like if there were no 'bashers', if Dr Packman had been entirely free to implement his vision and subsequently gain the total control that he clearly aspired to. What if the Broads Bill had passed through Parliament without opposition, and the Broads had actually become a national park complete with Sandford? Thank goodness for 'bashers'.

JollyRodger, I've done my best to return the thread to the topic. Please start your own thread if you want to discuss something else and don't hi-jack mine!
