Breathing new life into old boats

Sneaky. I see its listed under Essex Boatyards rather than BCU and the tel nos are different. Well they're in business to make money like the rest of us

To be fair Mike, its on their main site too...

Apropros not a lot but this caught my eye the other day as a very tasteful refurb of an older boat:

Does anyone know what carpet they've used (see http://eby.rightboatexpert.com/api/images/89595/1010x1010)?

I've no connection to BCU or the Barke Bros but it struck me that this could make someone a very comfortable cruiser for not a lot over £100k.

Should anyone speak to Nick, ask him if he'd take £60k for it.

I was looking at this one last week and it was £145k!

Hardly a close-up but good enough for an ID!

ah right I see. Definitely not Ege Gigant. 100% sure. The loops on Gigant are laid out with vertical and horizontal tramlines, whereas on that princess they are diamond pattern ie 45 degree tramlines.
