I later saw they ran fishing trips as well with no crew just the skipper. Any way, it left me with a funny feeling so I found out the skippers name from a local and Googled it and was not surprised to find articles about the family, court cases, fighting, ABH & GBH, many current harassment orders. I was surprised with all the current who-har going on about vetting for people that come into contact with children that this can happen. Any way I just drive lorries but thought this can't be right so thought I would post it on a few forums to see if anyone knew any more ? It just seems odd that a man with a criminal record like the skipper who took us is allowed to take children out on his boat alone?
