very occasionally being taken on here and it was exciting when parents thought me old enough to steer one on my own

This photo brings back some fond memories,used to work on these boats during the summer holidays.
Was only about fourteen or fifteen at the time,had some good times.
Well done David,great stuff.

Yes the good old days at the Rotunda all gone now just a large slab of concrete there used to be so much there fun for all

I remember my big brother taking me on the boating pool

I had many a time having fun at the rotunda, and now it is all gone and there nothing to replace it. Folkestone council missed an opportunity to re vamp this area and make it a real tourist pleasure site.
