Thank you all, I can't wait to get back on the water. This is the exact boat I've been looking for and I've only heard good things. Just got to rig her up and plop her in! Looking forward to contributing to the forum in the future

Volvo 9hp, I've not had a Volvo before so hopefully it's as good as my old V70 was
If is a single cylinder 2010 then not Volvo's finest hour. If it is seawater cooled make sure you keep the waterways clear as it is prone to overheating if run hard for any length of time. Guess if it has survived this long it should be OK

Congratulations!
Sadlers are one of the top British designers and manufacturers of the 70/80's, David Sadler was a superb designer and the Sadler factory kept up their standards of construction until the end.
But, I have to admit I'm biased, I have a S25.

Are you sure the blisters are osmosis related? When I patched up an area of epoxy coat with Gelshield, I found that if the layers are not thoroughly dry little blisters occur because of solvent entrapment.
