yes i hope i do, i would like to pay the boat builders work yard a visit.

i am glad to find so many boaters here on this website.

do you have boats to rent by any chance?

Kerala where you are headed is on the western Coast while I am on the eastern coast but both are in the Southern part of the country.

I am a member of a Boat Club in Chennai and hence able to offer sculling. Please do come.

This should give some details of Kerala traditional sports boating.

However boats have been used for all purposes there and one can meet to learn and teach and work in that context. Best of luck on your venture or adventure!

perhaps i could get in contact with you again for some boating advice in the future.

thanks, alex.

Good to see so many boaters on the forum. I cant wait for better weather in the UK so I can get my boat out for the season!

boatmasterlondon

yes, it's great is'nt it chris. kerala's just the place to do a bit of boating. perhaps we should have a boat club here on india mike.

ChrisJ

Oh yes. I have spent a lot of time on the backwaters too! Lovely spot. I get so sad seeing my boat with a tarpaulin over it. Roll on spring!

boatmasterlondon

yep roll on spring, i have an old cabin cruiser not doing much, i wonder how much it would cost to take to india on a big ship.

prob not the best idea as it would be too hot, but i like the idea of a very small houseboat,

i have started a thread on property in india about boats in india. perhaps i can pick myself up a long indian wooden canoe.

cheers, alex.
