      Hi All

      MY wife told me no more boats this year(2025)!!!

      YES dearest !!!

      Two days later the Sea Queen arrived .

      I had already bought it my dearest !!!

      So onto the boat, someone had just stop on it !!!

      50 pounds for the boat and 50 pounds postage via E Bay Global Shipping.

      It would have cost more in just postage within Australia !!!!!!!

      So this how the boat arrived and as per the pictures on E Bay.

          Looks like quite a bit of work to do there Harry.

          But you are the man for the job.

            HI All

            All the decks are off, cutout the bow section for reglue-ing as well as all the frames and stringers inside.

            Re-made the forward roof frame and added more timber to the back of frame 1.

            The new deck is going to finish at the back of frame 1 because that  I can save the deck skins.

            I have de-nail a lot of the boat and going to add chine rails to the boat.

            The motor is a Turnigy L5055C-700kv which I plan to run on 4S for about 10,000rpm with a 50mm CNC 3blade prop.

            I have started restoring the stern cabin roof, but the forward cabin roof is to be replaced.

              Hi All

              A bit work on the boat with new forward deck.

              I was not happy with the forward cabin fixed roof, so I am making new ones.

              The stern bottom skins look a bit flexible, so I have add double stringers to the last two sections.

              The rudder hole is far to big, so that will be filled in and re-drilled later.

                Always very rewarding to bring an old boat back to life from a point where many would have binned it.

                  HI Richard

                  This one was just at the right point for finishing/restoring.

                  Only some damage to the bow.

                  So I added chine rails, new forward deck, new stern deck(missing) and new  boat stand.Boat StandStern Deck 1Bow 4Chine Rail 1
