When i went to Cornwall for New Year exploring was far from my mind but I just couldn't resist this old boat! It looks to have run aground a long time ago & was just moored up in a shipping yard. It was almost begging me to have a look round :lol:

The front of the boat. This photo was taken the day before when the tide was out - on the morning i went the water was right up to the shore which flooded the hull and made it inaccesible :(

Cheers guys, i'd never 'done' a boat before, it was lots of fun!

Apparently there are loads of military bunkers around Padstow too. Next time maybe...

Never even thought of derelict Boats! Very good! :)
