Jrtm Posted July 8, 2016 Report Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) The brass at the back of the gearbox (handle) dosnt look as shiny as the rest rather spoils the rest and the red valve below fuel filter isnt in keeping with the rest of the paint work i dont see how you have the nerve to add a pic with the engine in that state (please fix these horrendous faults) Edited July 8, 2016 by billybobbooth

Iron Dutchess Posted July 30, 2016 Report Posted July 30, 2016 Hi, Rather than upload loads of pics', I thought it would be easier to just post a link to where they are already online. https://the-iron-dutchess.com/repaint/ But here is one just to start you off
bargemast Posted July 30, 2016 Report Posted July 30, 2016 They've done a great job, she looks brand new. Peter.
Iron-Dutchess Posted August 5, 2016 Report Posted August 5, 2016 Glad about that, it cost enough But they did put a lot of paint on 5 coats in all. They've done a great job, she looks brand new. Peter.
stripey Posted August 15, 2016 Report Posted August 15, 2016 Very exciting today, as we have seen our new boat in build for the first time. Here is Sunflower in Newcastle-under-Lyme.
luggsy Posted August 16, 2016 Report Posted August 16, 2016 That looks a very nice shell who's the builder ?
stripey Posted August 17, 2016 Report Posted August 17, 2016 Tim Tyler - That looks a very nice shell who's the builder ? Thanks! Tim Tyler is the builder.
adam1uk Posted August 18, 2016 Report Posted August 18, 2016 Tim Tyler - Thanks! Tim Tyler is the builder. Braidbar fitout, given the cruciform in the rudder?
Athy Posted August 18, 2016 Report Posted August 18, 2016 Very exciting today, as we have seen our new boat in build for the first time. I'm sure that many of us here will remember just what an exciting moment that was. I certainly do - and our 'Trojan' was launched ten years ago this month.
stripey Posted August 18, 2016 Report Posted August 18, 2016 Braidbar fitout, given the cruciform in the rudder? Well spotted! All being well, the launch at Braidbar will be at the end of this month, and the boat will be ready in January.
stripey Posted September 2, 2016 Report Posted September 2, 2016 (edited) She's in the water! Here are a few pictures to tell the story*. The prop was fitted at the launch wharf. I found that it was easy to rotate them using MS Paint and then saving them as a png files. Sadly, Photo Editor seems to be long gone, but thanks for the suggestion about this, Murflynn.

Murflynn Posted September 3, 2016 Report Posted September 3, 2016 rotate them on your computer using MS Photo Editor before posting.
stripey Posted September 4, 2016 Report Posted September 4, 2016 (edited) Couldn't resist adding this one - check out the (excellent) crane driver's grin (you'll need to zoom in). Edited September 4, 2016 by stripey
Ange Posted September 18, 2016 Report Posted September 18, 2016 Here's Iona - unrecognisable to our friends because of the clear roof, ready for brokerage.
Jak Posted November 1, 2016 Report Posted November 1, 2016 (edited) My new boat (and first boat) at home in Leighton Buzzard Edited November 1, 2016 by Jak
Athy Posted November 1, 2016 Report Posted November 1, 2016 With a name like Ajax, no wonder she looks clean!
Jak Posted November 1, 2016 Report Posted November 1, 2016 Lol. Thanks for that. The name was significant for the last owner 15 years ago. . We are renaming and repainting in the near future.
