On the homeward stretch now, all upholstery in, all engine electric sorted, just got to install stereo and domestic. Engine hatch, sunbed and drive & props!

Excellent bit of kit these Yanmars, first turn of the key, and it starts instantly!

we had a damp but successful sea trial on Saturday, and a very happy owner when we took the boat to Cobbs to fuel up, and the bill came to £30!!!

Heres a couple of pix of the boat on Sunday.
