Not to tempt fate, but there may be another thread starting after a rain-lashed viewing (and hearing her fire up!)
More soon 🚤

That’s a bit precariously balanced ,isn’t it? 😳😳 Dont know if I would trust those props on shingle..
If those pics give you the heebies, check out this vid (if short of time, from circa 6.40 and especially circa 7.40) - all routine boatyard fare, inc casually strolling underneath a couple of tons of boat held only by 2 strops to wield a paintbrush. All looks a bit scary, but it's how it's done and accidents seem to be thankfully very uncommon
The Aquaholics channel is worth a look - interesting insight into boats & boating at every level from a real enthusiast
You all missed a good one earlier in the year in the Gumtree Freebies, a Thornycroft gentleman's motor yacht in need of full renovation. I think it was 1930's and about 45ft, lots of rot in the hull, had been used as a houseboat for a while.
Thornycroft built everything from 'small' motor yachts through torpedo boats to Destroyers.

Ah-Ha you fell into the trap, we need more pictures then!!

I don't want it... Well kindof... NO I DON'T! (I've also been up the middle aisle in aldi, to get the pack of stepped bits, spent fifty, and not got any dinner, so have to eat out)
