Narrowboat Gladys - ready to launch? My 7th visit to Aintree November 2024

Monday 11th November 2024: After a frustrating journey to Liverpool, my train eventually got there 90 minutes late... but I'm pleased to say that the Merseyrail service to Aintree afterwards was as punctual as ever and I soon found myself standing outside Aintree Boats. I'd been told Gladys was due to launch on Friday, 15th, so wasn't sure how much work would still be waiting to be done today. When I arrived, there was lots of activity inside the boat, and 3 guys were in there at one point. Although the engine had arrived, it wasn't due to be fitted til Tuesday, and a few other things still hadn't been done - but even so, I was assured she would be ready for delivery on Friday. Time will tell! In this video, you also get to see a few other boats which are nearing completion. My next video will be of the launch itself, which will be at a marina on the Middlewich Branch in Cheshire. I hope you enjoy this video! Jeff
