Default My Project

I have never built a boat before. I spent 20 years manufacturing trailers so I can weld a bit

So I have decided I am going to finish welding this boat and fit it out.

Here it is. http://boatbuildblog.blogspot.com/

Any hints, tips, advice gratefully received.

Please feel free to add as a follower is you like.

My wife sometimes delivers parts to a boat yard/garage on Saturdays and they show her the progress from bare shell to finished product when they get a narrowboat in. They work in a poly tunnel structure a lot of the time, like the ones growers use. I can't help with any tips but wish you the best of luck with your project.
