yeh there are some dodgy characters out there, must meet up again soon chap, anyway some more pics,
hull has been steam cleaned inside and out, it got alot of the old antifowl off which is great,boat now squashed in the garage as i need to get the temperature up for applying the new anti slip floor,and its warmer to work as well,  going to strip the old anti-slip from the floor tonight and replace shortly, The anchor locker being made from 12mm Marine Ply,just got to get those angles right.
