    As they say oop north in England.
    Ay up Baggie, tha's got some reet nice boating locations around you m'laddie.
    They look cracking places to sail yachts or motor boats to your hearts content. We have to fight for any piece of water round here with the anglers, golf courses, and private lakes.
    I'm getting very envious 😊
    Best wishes, Dave W

Scratch built in 2004 from my own plan. Two layers of planks on ply frames, ply deck planked with 3/8 1/16 strips. Length of hull 50" by 13" breath. No motor sail only, winch for main & mizzen, sail arm for fore sails. Featuers a centre plate lowered by gravity and raized be a drum winch, also an expanding rudder, this has two servos to opperate. sails can be reefed or removed depending on weather conditions. Very good sailer Just goes in my car with the top mast & gaff boom lowered.

    Sorry for the delay Cap'n, please don't keel haul me. Have posted 2 sailing photos. Reefed right down in a blow & in a breeze. Close to rocks no problem. HAMMER.

    Very good looking model. I agree with the size and how good she looks on the water. Wind, Water and Wood has always been my favourite moto.
