not sure how to go about insuring her, presume i need a survey doing to confirm its value?
how to you put a price on this now,?
appart from the under structure its pretty much new, even the engine has only done 90hrs, albeit its droped a liner, due to some numpty engineer at mercury forgetting the gudgeon pin circlip, Div must a been a friday build

the other thing it has no hull id ie; no vin number

Amazing progress, looking good (apart from the blue seats

) hope the maiden wotzit goes well

Presumably you could insure it for what it has cost you, or more accurately what it would cost to replace with a similar condition version. As for HIN, surely it had one at some point in its life. Did the previous owner not supply one on the bill of sale. Has it ever been registered on the SSR? One final thought, I'm not quite sure where you stand with the RCD if you sell it if you don't have the necessary paperwork to prove it predates the cut off year for requiring RCD compliance.

I insured mine through Bishop Skinner, I supplied them with photo's of the new tubes and engines etc to back up the value which they accepted.

Nasher · 15 April 2012, 15:48

Was good to meet you yesterday, oh, and ta for the coffee.

As good as the images in this thread are, and the obvious hard work being put into the project, it really needs to be seen to appreciate just how good it is, and the standard of finish that Nugent is achieving. Both myself and Nos left very impressed.

I'm looking forward to seeing it when finished.

Nasher.
