Boat/launch/birchwood interceptor.3lt Merc/diesel/ Trailer/ Project To Finish.

Short story>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> This is a heavy old girl, we were going to take a summer going down the French canals to the Mediterranean and then recover her and trail her back. Perhaps in another year to visit some of our old stamping grounds like the channel Islands So Bought a birchwood boat a lovely OLD red hulled GENTLMANS boat, Finished in dark mahogany, a fair example of its time; and removed EVERYTHING , to inspect and rebuild, WITH AN OLD SCHOOL DIESEL FROM ANOTHER BOAT. What will it cost to finish? Is the question most asked. Well very little, even if you want to update the fablon, it is a matter of a little time rather than money.
Though chancers will cue and flutter! PAINTING THE HULL IS REALLY ONE OF THE SINGLE BIGGEST ITEM OUTSTANDING!!!! , both money and time wise. The boat stands me in at £3000; engine £3000, fitting £2500; What is the boat worth unfinished, not that much to you for sure. The trailer is a good solid lump of trailer, and alone, is worth the starting price!!
Originally; at the age of 80, I had decided to let her go as she is; but now; have been persuaded to put the cupboards and doors back, glue the fablon back and increase the starting price, each time it is relisted! In the hope that it will be time well spent!
