BroadScot Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Have a mate up here who hails from Ipswich. But, I have stayed at the NovoMotel in Ippy. An old AOL friend took me passed the Marina on the way to Southwold, so I am not that clever. Iain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumpy Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 I used to cycle to and from school along the quayside in the background when it was Cranfield's grain quay - been a few changes in 50-odd years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The interior looks in very good order. Engine looks original (original BMC) but that doesn't have to be a bad thing! The hull is an example of why you can't change the colour of a GRP hull, but all the same, a couple of coats of Permoglaze and she'll come up "loik a new'un". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said earlier, great to handle and for its size, very roomy ! The clever stern entry does not use a lot of space. Iain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hull would have been blue in its hire boat days if I remember rightly. It looks good in white now though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
