Lots of people have been asking about the refurbishment of Amazon Hope 1. Well, it was taken into dry dock a few weeks ago and work has commenced on extending the length of the vessel. I believe it will to be extended by ten meters. This will allow the ship to move into even shallower waters to take health care to some of the remotest tribes on the Amazon and it tributaries. You can have a look for yourself. The following clip shows the vessel being halved in two.

I just hope they know how to put it together again. I’ve heard of stretched limos, but this takes the biscuit. I just hope that Willie doesn’t think up an idea to offer hen parties on the Amazon. Come to think of it, you know, that’s not a bad idea. Willie I think you could look into that idea. If you have any comments on how we could develop the “hen parties” let me know, on second thoughts contact Willie directly.
