My first boat, in need of some restoration, paid £300.00 for
her, no electrics working, all windows need new rubbers. front Perspex
windows crazed and need replacing, leaks through roof and windows, canopy needs
replacing, cockpit floor is rotten, outside rubber fender ripped and needs
replacing and a good t-cut and clean.
moored in Arundel west Sussex, hoping to get a trailer and put on my drive to do
the work on her. will post pic's on progress when I start.
hoping to get her on my drive on Sunday 17th (very
excited can't wait) picking up new trailer on Saturday morning.
when the work is eventually done i hope to take her on
various canals and waterways with my wife jill, daughter Rebecca, son Matthew
and holly, one of our 4 dogs.
