Old Mirror?

[snowleopard]

Not having much luck on the Wanted forum so I'll ask here.

Does anyone know of an old Mirror hull for sale cheaply in the SW? Appearance is unimportant as long as it floats and my feet don't go through the bottom.

Sorry no.... but there was a free one on ebay last week (it did have a hole in the bottom /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif)... but it was in telford, ideal project ! /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif so no good to either of us. i will keep looking.

Word of warning about old mirrors, I have seen a couple where the plywood was so old, that it had lost any resilience, and become brittle. One contact with something hard was enough to put a hole in it, whereas a newer one would bounce off. Not a great idea if using it anywhere there is rocks!

...and Bell Woodworking never pput the best ply in the boats or kits anyway

I've got an Enterprise thats been sat up at our sailing club under a mast up cover unused for a year. Was stripped, repaired, and revarnished winer 2006/2007 but not had time to use it last year.

Has a set of full size plus 3/4 size sails, launching trolley, and also a road trailer.

Open to sensible offers with or without road trailer.

Not really down south though as its up here in West Yorkshire .

Look on eBay there's usually a least a dozen for sale there

I'm after a tender. An Enterprise wouldn't fit the bill.

So what if there's a hole in it? It's easy peasy to pop a patch on or replace a panel innit? Dark stains under the varnish can be a bigger problem if there is rot all over the place.
