It would seem a shame if she is scrapped.

Anybody fancy a challenge?

"Steam" Launch Belle is powered by a diesel which somewhat limits it's appeal.

Or perhaps expands it, since a diesel is a LOT less bother. She looks lovely and I hope she finds a home with someone who has the funds to put her back in service. A wide-eyed and impecunious dreamer could be a disaster for her.

It either needs someone retired with experience of wooden boats and a moderate amount of funds or someone with ****loads of cash.

My parents had a converted lifeboat that origionaly was pedal powered and now has a diesel inboard.
It still has more class in each rivet than many?
