Jan,I can see how you felt that way-but they pitched it just where we wanted it. All the current main stakeholders are based on Teesside-so it's difficult to put down any business markers that are going to commit us at the moment at least until we announce our ownership. We are in talks with all of them and at the moment she's a 3,300ton bona vacantia hot potato. The One Show report was about awareness-my mail box is full and the phone hasn't stopped ringing with offers of help or membership enquiries. Also we have to remember how well loved in the North East 'Dover' was in her guise of the Nightclub Ship 'Tuxedo Royale'. We shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth here.
John Coates our Teesside rep has the river running in and 'our' ship steaming through his veins and it is through him we are to launch our association on Teesside in the not too distant future. Ultimately 'Dover' belongs back in Dover but we have to make her seaworthy first so that it is to share her benefits with our new found friends in the North East.
