    Wow well done you, congratulations it just goes to show that it was worthwhile sending off all those coupons you saved. Just curious are you keeping or selling - not sure what I would do as worth such a lot of cash :D

    Well done & enjoy your prize - I hope you get plenty of use from it.

    I'm sure most comp organisers are well aware of all competition sites & online sharing, there are also comp regulations regarding NPN (no purchase necessary) entries.

    I think the entry figures quoted probably reflect the type of prize - I didn't enter as I (and I'm sure quite a few others) have no use/nowhere to keep nor have the funds to moor a boat of that size! It would also be a bit specialized to sell on - if you were that way inclined!

    Congrats again!

    But you were miss informed. The dream cottage. And the oasthouse one.

    Thanks- they never mentioned those were online entry too. I just wonder if online entries will continue?

    Wasn't there was a Daily Mail French House competion too recently? That had online entry as well I think?

    Selling I'm afraid- lovely as it is the running costs are horrendous (20-30K per year) and totally outside my budget! Owning one of these is very much a rich man's hobby- plus I live about as far from the sea as it's possible to get in the UK!
