Doorman Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 (edited) Daniel, I think its a good idea for those who might be interested. To link a member's boat to their name would be of added interest to us at least. P.S. Where you moored on the Shroppie last week quite close to the entrance of the Llangollen? Mike She's looking very smart with her fresh paint on and with her (often missing on other boats) anchor-winch. Peter. I like the idea of the anchor-winch, especially on a heavy widebeam, it makes sense! Mike Edited October 8, 2010 by Doorman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doorman Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 (edited) This is our boat being slipped back into the water at Aqueduct Marina following grit blasting and blacking. We could not recommend the people here any higher! Mike Is this what you wanted? you were so close, you need to do this [img=the address of the image] My Hero! Tim, if ever you're near the Shroppie Fly in Audlem, give us a shout and there'll be a pint of falling down water waiting for you at the bar Mike Edited October 8, 2010 by Doorman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liam Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 Here's Ariel only a couple or so days after I bought the boat, on the way home on the Bridgewater from Stockton on the GU... And here's a relatively recent shot, took in October of this year... Kerry (Kez) on the tiller.

Guest Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 Hi Staion tug - welcome to the forum. It would be a shame not to complete the job on such a tidy looking boat - keep us posted!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
station tug Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 Looks a nice job, keep the faith many thanks for your kind words..its built from scrap plate from a ship building yard.its 12..6..5..5..with a 30" draft and steel engine room bulk heads. i fitted a lister hrw4 marine which was perfect when installed.some fool(me) left water in it over the years so there is some frost damage to the engine and three valves had seized into the heads.its all rebuilt now and running again...
