Our (new to us) boat

If you wait long enough, everything floating in the upper Medway will eventually come down and bash into you on those moorings anyway.
Looks far too nice a boat for you Al, presume you have some really manky odd sized fenders to drag the boat down to " Cuxton " standards and hopefully it will sport a well perished semi inflated dinghy half full of last winters rain dangling on the davits ?
A few bits of hairy old washing line to secure boat to shore and you should feel right at home. :)

You'll be apalled to hear that it has matching fenders and a brand new 2.5 metre inflatable still boxed and wrapped. Nice new mooring lines...
We will of course wait to see what delights arrive after some heavy rain washes assorted furniture and wheelie bins down.
 
Congratulations, she does look in mint conditions.
Just curious, did she have the interior joinery rebuilt at some stage, or is that original?
I can't remember to have seen any boat of the early 90s using such light wood.
Anyway, it looks very nice indeed! :encouragement:

It's listed as light ash, still in very good condition.

Congrats!

Good time of year to buy (in my opinion), as you get some time to get used to her, tweak various bits and bobs, etc before spring hits!

What's your boaty history? I love seeing "it's my first boat" with over 10m jobs! (We didn't dare so stuck to a 6.5m "tester" for our first year).

We've had a few boats, last one was a 36 footer, but took a five year break, now really looking forward to getting out there again.
