Your new site looks great - will book mark for updates on progress. Only point at the moment - I couldn't navigate back to the first page other than using the back button.

Joan says that you have a tasty looking helmsman in your photo - do you have a phone no for him !!

Ash :lol:

Hunky helmsman - where?

I did wonder about that myself. I suspect she was looking at some other site.

I've been telling Joan for ages that she needs to get glasses for reading work - maybe the comments on this thread will convince her !

hm, i like the "Boat" page being under construction. Also the inspiration,which i would just tip out mself. You don't need any inspiriation really, just acting dumb or nonchalant will do :-)

Yerse . . .

Boat is as under construction as page at the moment . . . currently the specialist rudder stock engineer is waiting for a weather window to complete the job, I have lost the instructions for fitting the prop and I have to go 130 miles to Inverness on Thursday to get a couple of two quid widgets to conect the fuel hose to things.

Inspiration . . . just the hope that you will buy books to fund our somewhat underfunded exhibition. All Amazon purchases made through any BM link bring us a little income.

But isn't the design nice? It's recycled after originally doing it for a client who was a little to picky for the money they were paying.

Intelligent content may have to wait for departure and those long pensive hours at sea. Important preparations like varnishing the tiller and deciding what shoes to take are currently taking up every waking moment.

I've seen that tiller and it looks indecently well varnished already.

But . . .

The shop told me they are boat shoes.

Sort of a catamaran really . . .
