Top 10 Posts of 2017

Happy New Year all! Time to look forward at 2018 and back at 2017.

2017 was a difficult year as had to cancel two big sailing trips and so there was a distinct lack of boating. But what were the top ten posts of 2017?

By view count it was:

1. London Boat Show pics for Tillerman
2. Paddle boat Italie on Lake Geneva (above)
3. Scorchio!
4. So sad
5. Boating weather
6. Boats! Boats! Boats! ... on the Thames at Putney
7. Sleaford Mods going down like B.H.S on the Thames
8. Book review: "A Race Too Far" by Chris Eakin
9. London Boat Show 2017: Recreation of Bounty Voyage
10. Boris Staysail's vinning sailing "alternative truths"

By number of comments it was:

1. (Untitled post)
2. Boats! Boats! Boats! .... at Richmond
3. Five Gigs for Glastonbury Weekend
4. Niagara Falls trip 3/3 - Chicago!
5. Quiz: How many ferries across the Thames are there in London?
6. London Boat Show pics for Tillerman
7. Boating weather
8. Sleaford Mods going down like B.H.S on the Thames
9. Book review: "A Race Too Far" by Chris Eakin
10. Before "All is lost"

My favourites (in no particular order) were:

1. Totally Thames Installation: Future Dust
2. The Ferries of London: the secret Greenwich Ferry
3. The London Stones: Yantlet Creek
4. The Ferries of London: Shepperton to Weybridge Ferry
5. Visiting Bazalgette's magnificent sewers
6. Paddle boat Italie on Lake Geneva
7. Two lessons from my first yacht sail
8. Before "All is lost"

Yes, struggled to get the full 10 favourites.

It was noticeable how view counts decreased in Q4 - did anyone else notice that? Maybe should have posted more London Boat Show pics for Tillerman.

I wonder what 2018 will bring...
