We
bought "Sefton" this summer and we have enjoyed sailing her almost every
weekend, and as many week nights as we could in the lighter nights.
She is moored on the Calder and Hebble
canal up here in Yorkshire and we have cruised the canal network mostly on
daily trips with family and friends.
We
have been away for the weekend and have plans for York and Lincoln this
summer.
She is in relatively good condition but
needs a good lick of paint and an anti foul this year. we will be keeping her
in the same style livery apart from the wobbly stripes, ( I think they must
have been painted on as she sailed past the painter?)
We intend to keep her as original as we
can but with a modern and luxurious feel to her. the main changes we will be
making is a few fittings and upholstery.
One thing we may need help with is
colour schemes for inside, as all photo's we have seen are of open plan wooden
looks. "Sefton" has a full galley with hot and cold water, a separate shower
and wc room on the right, and a 2/4 seater dinner/settee/single/double bed,
small cupboard and full length wardrobe on the left, which leads in to a
private double cabin in the bow. does this lay out sound familiar?
Well its been a long hard summer, but she is now looking good!
