You are very kind with your words!Just finished binging this thread at my desk...
I, like many on here have done projects (cars, houses etc..) but this really takes the biscuit. Your attention to detail and trade level skills across so many disciplines is mind bogglng.
Most of all though I applaud you for your vision and persistence. Without those all the skills in the world are worth nowt...
She's a beauty, Congratulations!
Was aboard from Sat until Tuesday. Still sorting out a few issues that have reared their heads with the boat in use. Also did some fishing and the odd bit of chilling! We had another unexpected visitor to the boat on Monday evening too……….I was most discouraged to find you were on your boat as I passed Monday. Not because you were in, but because I had 3 other boats in tow and was concerned your funbox might not stretch more than a few rounds. As such it wasnt a missed opportunity, rather a postponed one. We will stop one day to invite ourselves aboard.
Interested as to the few issues.Was aboard from Sat until Tuesday. Still sorting out a few issues that have reared their heads with the boat in use. Also did some fishing and the odd bit of chilling! We had another unexpected visitor to the boat on Monday evening too……….

It is nice that wildlife feels at home on your boat and obviously waiting for the fishing rod to produce some instant snack.
And you had to be persuaded to start the thread because you didn’t think anyone would be interested.You are very kind with your words!
I didn’t know one was upside down....I thought one was port and the other starboard ??Apologies that the first photo is upside down - again!
No, both of the modified port engine injection point.I didn’t know one was upside down....I thought one was port and the other starboard ??

Hi John, I found your blog recently and loved it! I thought you'd be interested in a photo of 'Ocean Legacy' - my Almarine AK 12.00 which I'm finishing off at the Folly in Cowes. Single Engine, folding top for European Canals and a lot of work still to go! I bought the boat from Alan Sharples, who built her in a field near Peterborough 3 years ago, brought her across under her own steam to the Isle of Wight and have been working hard to get her up and running whilst also having to work full-time. It would be great to compare notes sometime! Best wishes (and a very happy New Year!), Graham
