I need a boat

Just do it, I’am so sick of hearing of people not doing things for the fear of being sued, we are all becoming a bunch of politically correct boring sooks! Our kids are also becoming sooks, let them get their hands dirty and get a few scratches every now and then!

How can a sunken boat be “dangerous” play equipment anyway? Fill it up with sand and its a sandpit, surely gooterz and trix you aren’t suggesting any piece of raised equipment is inherently unsuitable as a kid could what, trip over the edge…. what else is there? PC gone mad indeed, funny thing is the PC of the RA’ers is probably worse than the governments, thus their situation of old equipment no longer being suitable. So what response do we give them, suggestions? God no, that would be helpful, lets tear the sh*t out of them instead, much more fun right……

PC crap, no wonder we are breeding a nation of electronic nerds and practical morons! Kids need to play on real stuff, drives me nuts that some little person may get a scratch so ban it!

rant over

I’m afraid that the above comment seems to hit the nail on the head. In what way was the old equipment “not up to standard”. Is a decrepit boat half dug into the ground going to be any better? I think you might want to get some official advice before you spend time and energy on something that may not be appropriate.

If the play equipment which was fine last year doesnt comply with the standards was removed.. how is a half in the ground boat going to comply. For a playschool you seriously considering just buying something for at least you’ll be able put the liability on if anything goes wrong and the playschool gets sued. Just food for thought.

If this was 20 years ago i’d have just made a boat like thing out of old hardwood! all you need really is the shape, wheel and the rudder to let the kids think its a boat
