Re: Help
Genuinely very appreciative of the support so far.
Well where do I start for ‘what I need’
What I don’t need be a better question!!!
Long story short. I’ve decided to take a financial brain fart and have my vandalised very sorry of a state boat taken to a refurbisher and get it stripped back to bare hill and totally modernised and renewed.
Before you think I could’ve bought a much better boat for the 15 or so grand I’m into it for. I took the boat from a friend who passed away and live the boat more than his wife.
She has the aq171 Volvo penta which is rerunning and low hours. Apart from
That she’s being stripped and getting a wet room new appliances etc etc.
It’s a decision I made a little impulsively but am going through with it regardless of the financial impact as I’ve forked out a nail biting about with apparently little visual progress but I know the works being done to a very high standard.
I’ll be looking for things from materials for the furnishings to possible engine parts so any info on places I can directly phone would be great.
The boat builder working on her is NOT doing mechanical work so I’m getting a Volvo specialist for the engine, gauges steering and gear linkages etc?!
I’ve had small speed boats with outboards for years.
But this is a very different project.
Regards and thanks. John
