A little about us
Our new replica Dutch Barge 'Elessina' is being fitted out by myself (Ian), my wife Leigh and daughter Katie.
I worked full time for a well known Motor Car manufacturer, as a Senior Conveyor and Facilities Engineer.
Leigh works at a local hospital as a medical secretary.
Katie is studying criminology at Portsmouth University
We lived in Essex, but then moved to Kent in 2006. Through work we lived in Michigan USA for over two years (1995 to 1998).
