But how would you do that without either the original tooling,, or a load of moulds taken off an existing identical boat. either way, I'm sure it would be far better, and far cheaper, to start again.

Spose someone coud splash the running surface, and build a new deck & topsides around it.

Obviously you would have access to the orignal tooling, maybe even drop it back in the box it came from.
Anything can be repaired it's just a question of economics

Edit keep the motors & give me the hull need another project for next winter

On a personal note, sad to see the boat damaged he's a good brit who stuck the hand in the pocket & is out there trying.
Best of luck with the next move whatever direction it takes

I've never actually clicked that button.

Otherwise you'd be right, coz although there's nothing sexy about a 'splash', they're certainly vulgar, hateful, threatening, and in principle, they violate law.

Let's not go down this road again, as I haven't got my banning trousers on today.

That's saved Ben from having to use his imagination then. No risk of fire in the Marex office today.

No road trip JF, just a bit of a laugh.

A shorts day, today then!

Oh yeah - it's big and red. I know someone with a big red crane!
Must've been a long haul for you driving down!

suprised no one made the crane crew/team and dock side spectators wear hard hats in the lifting zone after that!! bits might have dropped off!!

Must be a new thing riding the load while on the hook too.....

Never mind Hard Hats. I prefer the far more reliable approach.
Don't stand underneath anything!
