South end on Sea

[onesea]

It’s a long time since I have posted on here, and never in the East Coast Forum i am hoping for a favour.

are there any members in that area who can look at and take some photos video of a boat for me. It’s one I am considering buying, normally I would just go look but it’s not local.

Viewing time should be fairly open.

she is early 60,s and fibreglass.

PM’s welcomed.

I can do that for you one morning, as I'm just along the road in benfleet. I know nowt about wooden boats though, so I will happily take some pics for you and a vid on the phone I'm not much use for advise on condition if you were hoping for that. Someone else may come along who knows woden boats.

I'm in Leigh-on-Sea - 3 miles from Southend. Happy to have a look, might even know the boat.

Hi Steve. I'm on it - going to look at it on Friday. I had a peek through the fence this morning. It's in the compound out by the Two Tree bridge.

Well done Roger, that the motor boat club place? I've noticed a few neat little sailing boats in there.

Well it wasn’t the one I went to look at. OP is steering clear. Such a shame to see a boat get past the point of no return. Apparently the previous owner had thought about cutting it up and selling the lead!
