Bolinder Boating with Tar Boat Spey

[DHutch]

I know atlease a small handful of members already know that ive been straying from my native boat again, but for the others, ive got a few holiday snaps from my week on TarBoat Spey, my first real introduction to bolinder boating and wooden boats. (its all down hill from here im sure)

The Engine

 

 

And finally, can anyone tell me anything about these boats or the people on them?

Was realy impressed with that engine when i scrounged a small trip(even if i was a bit drunkend) not knowing a lot about vintage engines but just loved the sound of it,but it did look like a posh version of my calorifier with a fly wheel on. Lovely boat and great to see you pleased you enjoyed your trip

Thanks for those photos. It is good to see Spey in good fettle again. I did notice that you didn't volunteer to jump in to clear the prop!!!

Last time I saw her she was hogbacked and part owned by Gary & Vera Aspey.
