Islander Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 Cor blimey, and I thought I had problems. Does your bank manager know. I must admit that's way out of my skill range. Now I see that Falling Leaves may have been a possibility even if only as a pattern. Colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same hull and Royall's generic design but done as a three berth Barry. Unusual build, everything was nailed to the chine and hog with steel nails which have rusted away meaning it is easier to take apart than usual Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont tempt her Peter, you know what she's like! When we put the new decks on Chloe Jane she announced we had used exactly eleven hundred and whatever screws. On Janet Anne, doing the same job, I kept sending her off to mix epoxy so she couldnt count them. However, "it is close to 800 because there are 4 boxes of screws missing from the shelf" she announces. Somehow I think she missed her calling in stock control somewhere.... 1 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm such a difficult, cantankerous, moody, pedantic old bugger the only person willing to employ me is myself and even that was close By the way, Royal Tartan is not mine. I have asked permission to talk about it on here but its owner, who kindly sent me the pictures, chooses to remain anonymous. I hope it may spur others on to look at restoring these old boats while there are still a few left desperate for rescue before the chainsaw rears its ugly head again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
