I am sure the boat is in Torpoint (Cornwall), this is his good one, i have a pic of his work Pacific (will try and upload it if i can find it) and makes this one look almost new
I guess you are on about his spelling if you had ever met him realy nice guy though.

Ah thanx Peter,

Ian - yes I was. Made me chuckle but that was a bit rude of me though.

It's in Huggins in Torpoint. Never met him or seen the boat.

looks like a good deal. He has it on for £4.5k with a trailer now.

If the tubes are ok and the hull is sound it would make a half decent scallop boat.

Would these hulls be much heavier than an Atlantic 21 or Humber OP 6.3?

It would be an interesting comparison for me.

A 21 will be heavier than a OP 6.3 and the Pacific will be heavier than both.

That's a shame, How did he meet his end?
Who am I going to nick fags off when me papers get wet now?
There's never an Igor around when you need one.

It is. I'm going to miss him. I don't think he'd been keeping the best lately - he'd been very quiet for a while. This topic really deserves it's own thread. I'm glad to see wilLfish taking over the family business though. He's as keen as mustard that lad.

RIP The Garfish

I'd only trust Garf once he's been dead two weeks mate, knowing him he'd dig himself out of a grave and flog your hooky gear!
