I've recently purchased a Norman 23, it is in need of a complete restoration ( inside mainly). Does anyone know where I can find the original technical specification for the boat? I have compiled a list of what I need to get but items such as window rubbers have been a hard one to find. Any help would be amazing. Thank You |

I agree with df and trevork - I'm finishing off the inside of my own Norman 23. Do the bits that are needed to get you cruising first. Then you'll see for yourself what else needs doing, based on how you use the boat. |

Wise words from the colostomy! Also, please make sure you send us pictures of what you do as you do it! This is what we like to see.
Good luck and, if any questions, do come back. Despite appearances, there is some great experience and knowledge here! |

There are some old brochures on this site through the front page menu for the basics but lots were fitted out by owners or other yards so no real standard fitout as such.
For window rubbers try seals direct and mention this site for a discount, I assume you have the grooved seals with insert to push the rubber against the glass, you need the glass and panel thickness to get the right size, they also sell the insert tool which makes it a lot easier to fit.
Restoration wise I doubt an original Norman will ever be worth any more than a well fitted out for use Norman so do it how you want it with all the luxuries you want.
Good luck with it, most importantly get out and use it even if it's half done or you will get bored and end up selling it and losing what you've spent on it, a half built boat sat outside a pub with contented owner is worth far more than a near immaculate project on blocks in a boatyard.....
