Swan Valhalla - Log 3 - Skipper Sam to the rescue!



Our best story of the week has come from Skipper Sam who saved the day last week before the arrival of any crew members. Deep in sleep at roughly 4.30am, he was rudely awoken by people trampling on deck. After realising that there were in fact thieves on board, Sam jumped out of bed and chased the suspects down the pontoon in his boxer shorts - and by no means silently - I think he managed to wake most of the neighbouring boats with some very loud swearing! Having got to the locked pontoon gate Sam flagged down a harbour patrol car who preceded to follow the men. Thankfully they scarpered and threw the stolen bolt croppers between the rocks where the police retrieved them. We all got a message from Sam the next morning relaying the story whilst sitting and having a cup of coffee feeling rather pleased with himself - he was definitely the hero of the pontoon!
