Let me know if you need more pics - thanks


Hello All!

I've now had my boat for a couple of years, and apart from needing a new trailer, have got her in good shape.

I do not however know what model of boat she is, and there appears no identifying marks anywhere.

I've spent many hours 'trawling' the interweb in vain, trying to find a similar one - can you help?

Thought it might be an ip (island plastics) but after a bit of googling may be not. It really does not matter looks like a proper bit of kit. Where are you planning to launch it, the trailer apart from the new wheels looks like it might let you down. What outboard do you use ?

Aye, the trailer needs swapped out - looking for one at the moment.

My mate and I launched it at Loch Lomond last year, and it was a pain to retrieve having the bunks on it.

Once in the water though, she did a great job in a choppy run up to Balmaha and back.

Thanks for taking the time to google on the type btw.

....

got a 15hp Mercury long-shaft on her, and a wee electric outboard as a backup.

Ran up to 6.5/7 knots no problem, and sat there sipping petrol - hardly noticed any had been used.

Great economy :D
