18 month project completed at last

[Double Vision]

Hi Paul,
So this is the boat mentioned in your other post 'old' post. Like you, I've been quiet on here for a couple of years too and piccy posting has changed muchly. The illustrated post I put up earlier was too big for private posting so I had to go and find my photo bucket account... That was when the fun started.

Anyway, the 290 looks very fine and I actually prefer those lines on a SeaRay. It looks like you've really got her back up to her former glory.
Well Done!

SO, now it's finished... What's the next boat on your list? :ambivalence:

Over :encouragement:

Thanks Roger. I think we will have a bit of fun with her this year and see what happens. Having said that I have been sniffing around another Martinique 36. I think though its too far gone even for me!
Your Azi 46 sounds gorgeous! Look forward to seeing some pics of her when delivered. Interesting to see you have gone back to a flybridge. I do like the large "lounge".

Thank you all for your very kind comments Chaps.

Following requests for some before pics here goes.

These were taken after we had limped her home from Brighton at 8 knots with a blown gearbox and a forest on her bottem. We had jet washed the the green algy off the upperworks before we left but as you can see the gel; coat is very flat.


Here are a few of the cockpit.
