Boat was bought to 'Tidy up' but had to be
stripped so is now totally 'personalised'. In addition I have built a
wheelhouse.
I bought her 'Cheap' (you know where this is going!) with a view to giving her a
lick of paint. I had just a hull by the time I took all the
rotten/rubbish bits off. I wanted a microlyn but was unable to locate any so
decided to try and
make her look similar from a picture. She is currently on my drive but should
shortly be on the River Hull at Tickton, I joined Hull Bridge Boat Club a year
ago but the birth of my son stopped all work so I am over a year late!! The last
jobs to do are antifouling, fit cleats and make a 3 piece canopy from sail cloth
which an acquaintance had in his shed, I now have a 1mtrx50mtr roll!!!!
She may not be to everyone's taste, especially those that want a totally
original boat but I have tried to make her as practical and comfortable
as possible.
