This was our first norman 20 which we found in a back garden just over a year ago http://s1253.photobucket.com/user/deano362/media/095.jpg.html
http://s1253.photobucket.com/user/deano362/media/066.jpg.html
we managed to do a deal with the owner and after a few hours of digging the trailer out of themud and emptying all the water out of her we towed her home and started the long task of making her good again
first a good wash http://s1253.photobucket.com/user/deano362/media/DSCF9729_1.jpg.html
Then we started to rip out the interior as it was all rotten due to being waterlogged http://s1253.photobucket.com/user/deano362/media/175.jpg.html http://s1253.photobucket.com/user/deano362/media/203.jpg.html
over the next few weeks we fit a bulkhead at the front, new sink unit and cupoboard unit at the other side new upholstery, carpets

had agreat summer cruising around on her, then one day as we coming back to the marina we saw a norman 23 for sale that we'd always liked so sold jemima and bought tilly too http://s1253.photobucket.com/user/deano362/media/036.jpg.html http://s1253.photobucket.com/user/deano362/media/20141101_170557.jpg.html
that was the end of september time so havn't done anything to her yet not that she needs much doing, planning to take her out of the water in few weeks to give her an antifoul and good clean
then looking forward to the summer months again
