Well by an astonishing coincidence I just found out I'm distantly related to the first owner!

Ooof, that's it, right there.

I've got a Keeble, had someone bought Playtime I was going to have a crack at the one tht was on ebay, most of them we're 32ft, there's another biggun in Southampton for sale, triple T6.354's IIRC.

As a raggie, that should be filed away under smelly noisy preposterously expensive stinky mobo like all the rest of them. But...bloody hell that is nice...stunning rebuild too.

Aarrgghh developing unhealthy feelings for stupid wooden boats at the mo!!!!
