Purchased in 2008 as a Project having no engine installed and obvious blisters which had been partially ground out.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

With only the gel coat ground away with a rotary sander many voids were visible which required sand blasting to open up.

Due to the length of time the lamiante had been exposed and the favourable ambient temperatures in Portugal the moisture readings were generally at acceptable levels.

After preparing a repair specification and obtaining quotations from both boatyyards in the UK and Portugal the Owner decided to return the yacht to the UK , closer to home.
