Well lads,
Havint posted in a long long time but back in action now, been working on this since febuary, taken her from a wreck to something a bit more respectable, fitted out with a water tight fiberglass internal deck space, reinforced and insluated hull, complete transom rebuild, 316 stainless handrails, windows, buckets of paint and fiber glass resin, the list could go on and on.. stuck a nice Mariner 40hp EFI 4 Stroke on the back, garmin plotter,fishfinder and VHF.

Fair play lad. She's looking well from what she was! Is it not bad luck though to change a boats name?

The way around this is to leave the origional name on the boat out of sight.
Put the Name on paper get it laminated, stick it in a locker and forget about it job done :wink:
