Has there been a moment that you have regretted buying a wooden boat ?
I ask this in a pragmatic way , because weekly via brokers I get sent “ deals “ of similar Italian lady’s some wood some all GRP ,
Some teak triple planks hulls with GRP ,top sides - eg Akhir ,s circa 1990,s ish ? ,
It seems to me the all wooden boats seem @ the lower end the asking price spectrum .
But having seen what you have posted over your ownership experience , disregarding the discretionary spend like the holo bathing platform etc , —- to be frank , thank you as you have put me off getting involved with a wooden boat .
I do appreciate sharing the ownership experience and assume others do too :encouragement:
