Fascinating Youtube video of the Whttle boatyard at Yarmouth IoW which specialises in maintaining and restoring Fairey Power Boats.

Enjoy!

Good to see boatyards still successful and keeping beautiful old boats alive and kicking.

He could start a mini series and show each boat inside and out.

I totally enjoyed the video.
