  1. Hi no there was no clinker dingy and the Bukh 20 is about to be replaced and the belt systerm works well , the timber work in it is very good and being let go a little will come up very good , paint , and modernizing things for ease of use , there is not many of these left unmollested or out of shape to plan Generous volume inside , plenty of storage , could be made into a very good cruising yacht easly handled and good turn of speed

    Next project.

    I have done the same , plans say copper wire. So I used small cable ties and some fishing line you will find copper to stiff in areas and it dominates the ply to much and you spend time having to even up the ply , cable ties quicker ,

  13. I hear charter groups are a good idea if you have a good type of survey boat , they do the off shore marketing and your boat in it , not shore what fees they take , and they have a deal with berthing so search that out try Shane walker he's been in the charter bis for years ,and knows the ropes ,
  14. Hi we have lotus inflatable soft bottom , 2.5 , good value ,from oddie marine in the south , strong tubes , good pump positions , the floor is soft so we purchased two sleeping bag liners from the warehouse ,a 10 mill foam rubber mats and glued two of them together and fitted into the floor space loose ,that makes it feel like you have a hard floor and you can stand in it , it has a good rub rail around the tubes for pontoons and your yacht. ,and easy to lift onto the yacht ,lay in the deck , check them out , they come with pump , repares kit , stow bag , and a full over cover for when on d
  15. Well it's on my marina I saw today sticking out of the berth. ,I would think that the Marina bunch should be on alert to deal to this stuff as there precaution first , it's takes a month for it to be 6 in long quick growing , otherwise if some other body gets into gear wanting to charge us for this the Marina companys will take that over as another profit Fees , handling , and administration, bull Sh-t on boaties , I see antifouling seems to keep it a bay unless it's old paint , the way around it is to copper sheet the sides of the berth fingers maby
