Preparing the boat

We are fortunate to be able to work on the boat at our home.  The double garage has proved a great asset!

 We have very little experience in restoring a wooden boat, so Paul has been researching and talking to many people who have undertaken a similar project.  The response has been wonderful.  Everyone has been very helpful  and only to happy to share their knowledge or direct us to further information.

The first thing to be done is to sand back the hull.  Paul has designed a method for us to be able to tilt the boat so we have good access to the hull.


We are planning to start sanding after Easter.
