yoeddynz Posted January 11, 2015 Author Posted January 11, 2015 we'll leave it cheers. Will just use our camp stove and try to keep that interior as clear as possible so we have enough room for essential things like the lava lamp etc. Thanks so very much for the offer though! 1 Quote

Mof Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Cool video, thanks Tortron am taking lifestyle notes On how to be the one guy with 3 girls on a boat? Quote
tortron Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Met alot of people living in small boats in the states. Spot at the docks was pretty cheap and shitty fibreglass boats are worth nothing and last ages with maximum abuse. Had a very slab city.vibe going on Quote
yoeddynz Posted January 15, 2015 Author Posted January 15, 2015 Just started watching it and it looks awesome. Will wait till hannah is home, pull a tab on some beers, stoke the pipe, sit back and enjoy. Looks to be bloody good! Cheers man. Btw- torrie you have a PM. Quote
Popular Post yoeddynz Posted January 16, 2015 Author Popular Post Posted January 16, 2015 Today was grab yourself a 60's wooden yacht day so we did. It went really well- the trailer it comes on tows really well so no hassles there. Just had to pump up the tyres as they only at 10 psi. The tyres certainly look to be 1960s so I think some newer ones are on the list if we plan to tow it further than the 3km to the ramp. It needs a jockey wheel but oh so handy we have a spare left from that cabin. Since the cabin aint going anywhere now the jockey wheel gets a new home. It looked so neat behind the van but will look even better behind Hannahs triumph I might just have to stage some photos! Anyway- here is Fiona Marie at her new home to get some love and attention... 10 1 Quote

yoeddynz Posted January 17, 2015 Author Posted January 17, 2015 Its actually pretty solid Torrie. Worst thing is what the harsh nelson sun has donw to the varnished bits up top. We are going to build a boat shed so it lasts longer out of the sun and rain. Its glass over ply and underside is pretty darn good but for some cracking in two areas on the paint that I will sand back and touch up. The inside colours are pretty rank so will get new paint everywhere there. hannah doesnt like the peach colour up top so we'll have to agree on a new shade. One front sail, rigger?, sail is torn but fixable. Not sure yet if mine or mums sewing machine would do it so might be something we have to get fixed :-0 Lots of sanding back of loose, crazed paint and repainting then. Not a job for the hot sun we have right now especially inside where its like a bloody furnace. Needs vents and opening front windows! But sooooooooooooooooo much potential. Looking forward to removing lots of the yucky painted trim bits of wood and replacing with a durable hardwood or cedar etc left bare/oiled to break up the paint. Make some hardwood duck boards for the floor too if thats what they are called. Watched that video ' holdfast' on vimeo last night- was fucking good! cheers anyway- pic of hannah sweating inside yesterday. seriously a hot place to be in that cabin on a sunny day!... Note the yucky painted colours and rank old squabs. Will make new ones. 2 Quote
