    Default Julian - old cray boat

    I think I've posted on this old cray boat in the past , but she is still slowing getting worse , and has been on the market for years at $25,000 , surely she could be purchased for much less.
    I know she is well proven as an open water boat , that the last work done on her was by Garry Stewart , re-fastening her , and that Garry reports she needs extensive work on ironwork .
    The wheelhouse needs to be replaced , also.
    She has a 5 cylinder Gardiner in her.
    If you had the ability , and time , she could once again be a very good open water boat.
    Regards Rob J.

    Hmm , is that THE Noel Watson ?.
    I've recently changed computers , but I know Julian was on a brokers book for ages.
    I tried to get a photo of her today , but the camera was playing up . I'll try again tomorrow , and post the photos .
    If you are interested , I could get the owner phone No.
    Regards Rob J , an old St.Arnaud boy .

    That's just what me Mum called me
    So JULIAN is the boat's name..I'll alter the thread name.
    A Pic would be good.
    What's an Old St Arnaud boy doing in Tyrendarra??

    What am I doing in Tyrendarra ?.
    Well , I've bought my horses down here , they now have green grass all year , and I'm learning to sail , and fish , something I couldn't do up north.
    I'll work on getting a photo of Julian , but I like her , I just don't have the ability to rebuild her myself.
    I've heard plenty about her though , she was some boat , handles the open water very well.
    Regards Rob J.
