You can tell when one of my projects is getting close to launch because the photographic record gets a bit patchy. I think it’s because I’m too busy running around getting everything done to remember to take pictures.
We installed Planta’s (brand) new engine without any real fuss. here it is waiting for us to lift it in.
More photographs hopefully soon.
The vessel’s rudder needed completely new hardware, and in a team effort between Nick Gates and co. and myself we got it done. Nick turned all the hinge bosses and I fabricated the tangs and welded it all together. I really wish I had more pics of this under way because it’s not an everyday job. The finished rudder swings in the breeze, meaning everything has lined up well and we are all really proud of it
