BOATS 2007

Longobarda

Having been aquired by a new owner, a complete refit was required for a retired racing yacht now entering the chartering market.  Completed in November this challenging project kept the whole team busy for 3 months.

   

Work done included all interior cupboards and drawers, new floors fitting throughout the boat, corian worktops, a new stove, a new chart table, a number of cosmetic changes down below and various bits of hardware fitting on deck.

Duet

Relaunched at the beginning of May 2007, Patrick and Richard - our latest recruit - have spent time over the past few months returning this 1920's 6-metre class yacht to racing specification. The cruising interior of a cabin with bunks, galley, etc has been removed returning to the original double open cockpit configuration the boat was originally built with.

Twilight

A new galley has been fitted into Patrick's own boat Twilight as a final necessary update so she is ready to sell (see Boats for Sale page)

            

 

Snapper

This was our own project.  We found the 18 ft teak gaffer deserted on a nearby marshland and decided it need rescuing.  A great project for teaching the apprentices shipwrighting skills she is now on the market (see Boats for Sale page).
