Forgive me if I'm in the wrong forum... I have a Freeman 32, built 1970, with twin Ford/Thornycroft 108hp straight six engines (Ford 2715E block). She's on the Thames west of London.
The engines, and the bays they sit in, need to be smartened up. This will necessitate removing the engines, which is not problem, but I wonder whether anyone has any bright ideas about getting them bead- or shot-blasted and sprayed, to give a good finish. Lancing Marine were mentioned but I suspect they'd charge a fortune. The alternative seems to be wire wool and patience!
The bays I shall look after myself with new plumbing and soundproofing and lots of paint.
Thoughts and ideas please...
