the orange and white cabin cruiser

The top coats of paint are marine dear [robben gits] paint and the silver parts are stainless steel,the wood was rubbed down and varnished,the black cross piece was a seat that Alan desigened, that adjustable from for to aft.The inside was also rubbed down and painted even the places you cannot see the stainless steel cleaned the screen removed and painted

The red paint is antifouling that gradually peels off [not harming the water]so next year its easier to strip and redo, 

When Imoved from Fort william Igot the boat and Alan got the engine I repaired the scratches rubbed down and painted her to the picture I hope you see, then sadly sold her to fund my now wooden boat building passion. 

This was our second boat,an 18ft cabin cruiser,that was double skinned although the floor had been removed when we got her ,so we fiitted a two piece marine ply floor,sold the first boat to pay for a big engine the first was a bit noisy,sold it and bought a 60hp yamaha fast but stable as it has adory hull that's like one bid V in the middle and two smaller V's at the outside, the only down side was in biggish waves it was noisy,as the water slapped in between the hulls.
