Description

Wooden Ships Comments on this East Coast Motor Vessel

East Coast fishing boat inspired vessel designed by Peter Brown and built by the owner.  The build started in 1984 with completion and launch in 2024.

The owner had built a couple of smaller boats prior to this but with the purchase of a large shed and the existing Sudbourne Sawmill he decided the time was right to build his dream.

Every piece of timber was chose very carefully with the owner willing to wait at each stage for the right timber rather than rushing ahead with lesser quality materials.  Every bit of the boat has been put together by the owner along with hand made door catches and fixings in bronze.

A lovely looking vessel with an excellent sea going hull, wide open deck space and a small pillar box wheelhouse.  Perfect for coastal fishing trips and family adventures, she is more than capable of coastal passages.

2024 insurance survey available.

Construction

Small oak bilge keels fastened through with bronze bolts.

Sawn oak floors across the centreline fastened through with copper rivets.
