Richard and Elizabeth are Awesome. You can read about richard's life in a story published in the Dallas Observer in December of 2025. Elizabeth and Richard decided to not left life pass them by and purchased two boats in the UK that sit next to each other most of the year. One for living on and the other for exploring the country. They take personal pride in both boats and spare no expense in making them an amazing place to stay. They are pet lovers and have a son that is the current Lonestar Middle Weight KickBoxing Champion for 2026. While from the United States, they travel to England a lot since Elizabeth is a Citizen of England by Birth. Her mother was from Lancashire and she has deep roots here.
Penton Hook Marina is the ideal place for a getaway break. Tree lined marina located to restaurants and activities with the options of being active or chilled and just enjoy the surroundings. the marina itself has a mixture of residential and Non-residential boats.
