In the meantime…

Nick sent these photos of the work he’s been doing on his Davidson dinghy rebuild – he writes:

My latest boat project is very close to being finished. No name yet & sanding of the oars ongoing. It looks pretty good sitting in my shop on the “ Flintstone Roller”. I’ll be taking it out for relaunching soon
Cheers, Nick

Before

After

Thanks for the update, Nick – looking great, and we hope you enjoy getting her back in the water!

Last week, a local writer and photographer stopped by the dock for a chat with Arnt and Dale, after one of their regular days on the water – take a look at the post on Facebook or Instagram:

Nice to get some exposure in different places!

I’ve been making (slow) progress on my model of Button Swan:

(Yes, I messed up on the thwarts – I went by the original drawings, not the revised version we built!)

We’d love to hear of any boat-related projects you’ve got going on while we wait for the opportunity to get back to the shop.

  1. Oh, and one of my projects was redoing the gunwales on Krysten’s pram on Rugen tied up at your dock. I used the new Petit water based varnish Sun Gold, and noticed that it hasn’t weathered well after about 8 months.
