My russian boat

Welcome back!

 

Hi Colin,

Here's a bit late response, I just started reading this thread so don't know if the answer is already given.....

The boat is in this Rusian thread, the pics here in post#8 are from post#477 there, you can click them there to enlarge.

(translation link to thread / translation link to post#477)



Hope it gives some inspiration

Good luck!
Angel

 

It looks like Colin already know the source

Looking at post#12 here and post#492 in the Rusian thread I see the same spot and the same boat in a different stage . . . .

Anyway, great info here and there, that is if the translation works well , otherwise we still have the pictures

Thanks angel
Never had the translation and every little info helps with the build.
Been busy for 28 months and it has been fantastic with a lot of swearing and sweating but through it all I can see my dream coming true. Am hoping to launch her in dec 2012 so I will need to start working every night

Cheers
Colin

hi all

went trout fishing in dullstroom so not much work on boat but one needs a break every now and again. tell me if you think the door for heads looks like a coffin my girlfriend thinks it does

cheers

 

We agree. It does resemble a coffin lid.

The boat is beautifully done, however.

 

Dam just what I thought but could not bring myself to see it like that:
: have since painted the centre white will send pic.
Cheers

 

Bring it over here for Halloween and drape it with orange and black with black cats and pumpkins. You'll be popular, especially if the head is labeled "crypt".

hi all

got a bit of rain yesterday but still hot as hell and so hot to work on boat but not complaining. Have an idea for my motor on boat am going to use a 6 kva genset with a 1.1kw motor controlled by a varaible speed drive. This will eliminate the use of a gearbox and will have forward and reverse on drive.Main concerns are will speed drive handle the sea conditions ie moisture?

 

m russianboat

dam motor cars .Got to have a day of because the renault megane that does not have a key but a key card decided to give up the goast and then to be told we can get one in 21 days from france that was a shock but on the up side i got to work on boat and found someone local who will come to my house and supply me a new card and code it for 1700 ZAR against 1500 ZAR from france but 21 day wait .will stop moaning now and have a smoke and glass wine.

cheers
