RESTORATION 11
"A" Class Yacht that came over from the states that took a fair hammering in transit, The lead keel was about to become detached from the hull, a lot of the planks had come loose both on the hull and deck to the extent that when i put a torch inside the hull and turned my workshop lights off i could have read a newspaper frm the light shinning through the gaps in the hull.
Feed back on a project is always very welcome and below is the clients comment following delivery of the restored yacht copied from his email -
Dear Richard,
A true craftsman!
Thankyou for the excellent job you undertook in helping to restore my US 1925 A Class boat 'Love & War'. I was thrilled with the quality of the finished job given the difficulty in fixing the plank on frame hull/ deck construction and in making her watertight. The progress reports and photos of the boat you provided was appreciated. I will now be able to enjoy sailing her in future vintage A races
Best wishes
Michael Bencsik""
