Repairs to small motor launch

These pictures are of a small motor launch which was originally build by my last boss (C. H. Fox's & Son Ltd.) back in 1964 when the company were known for building high quaility wooden motor boats and yachts, before I started my own boat building and repair business.

New projects on the go

Hi everyone,
At the moment I have a couple of big projects on the go, one is a rebuild of a James Silver Western Isles 37'6" TSDY build in 1948. She is in a poor state at the moment, but with a bit of time and money will be back to her beauiful original condition. When I get time I will put some photos on the site. The other projects are a couple of  small motor launchs in need a a bit of TLC.
