What boat is this
Met with the owner yesterday. She is called Juan Teresa 2.
Teak carvel on teak diagonal with oak frames. Built in 1907. 42ft long with 10ft beam.
There are some numbers and letters on her bow but not complete due to a repair. What we can decipher is as follows XL with a C we think. 633 or 637, 1907, PO or PC.
Richard the owner thinks she was a Captains trot boat and she has rings for holding on davits.
Steam powered originally but subsequently had two Rolls Royce diesels and was doing trips on the river blackwater from Maldon Quay in the sixties.
Been around the Blackwater for the last forty years.
Would really like to trace more history and would be grateful for any information or direction on where more might be available.

Not much extra info. Canoe stern added in 1933, I think. Registered to a Mrs C.M. Smith of London in 1949.
I would really be interested to see a photo of her stern as she is very similar to mine.
In Lloyds, she is registered as Juan Therese II

Thanks for that Forbsie next time I am down I will get a picture and post it.
What is the history of your boat and have you any pictures.
Any other information about Juan Therese II in Lloyds?
