here are 3 pics of the progress of the build as you can see the trim is all ready for the boat but the boat isn't yet i had it lifted by a friend with his hiab to steam clean the anti foul off the bottom but couldn't get it off so now it is upside down on the trailer ready for sanding off the anti foul and all the repairs to the chines ect

Is it done yet? Pics pics pics lol.

I plan on moving down to the south coast from caterham Surrey when I finally become a train driver, I am hoping to get based at Barnham or Chichester and I will be celebrating with a Phantom 21, or 23 if I was lucky enough to find another one.

Sounds great, can't wait to see what you have done. You sticking with the 225.

I remember the very last time I took it out, littlehampton. Was with my girlfriend (now wife) she was absolutely flying. Came back in to refuel then on way back out she conked out. Wouldn't start at all. After floating around panicking in the rapids that are the river Arun lol. Sold it.

You kept the 225?
